Q: Can a powered sub be used as a passive sub?

A: YES! You can add a powered subwoofer to a passive speaker setup (passive speakers with a separate amplifier). In my case, before I went full powered speakers in my gear, I was running the same setup (not particularly the same gear you listed above) for several years.

Q: Do subwoofers need amplifiers?

A: A subwoofer is, again, kind of a massive machine, and most subwoofers are going to require more power than your car can provide on its own. As such, prospective buyers are best off just accepting (from the start) the fact that they’re going to have to purchase some kind of amplifier in order to have a functioning subwoofer in their car.

Q: What is the purpose of an Active Subwoofer?

A: The sole purpose of the subwoofer is to emit the low-frequency tones (think of the deep bass in voice-overs during a movie, or the low bass that you can hear in a car driving by). Since this is the case, the subwoofer needs to receive the audio signals intended for this speaker to produce: the lowest frequencies of an audio production.
