Hi, hscrs,
Yes, you can add a powered subwoofer using speaker leads. I've used an inexpensive Kenwood sub and an entry-level Velodyne sub with fairly good results. The speaker-level inputs didn't take advantage of the built-in crossover feature available with line-level leads so the main speakers were still running full range. But the subwoofer still made a big improvement in sound.
Polk Audio makes a couple of reasonably good active subs; $100 to $200 USD. I've been impressed with Polk's budget series of speakers and subs. Otherwise, I'm a fan of Velodyne but they're going to run you more money; $300 to $400 USD for their entry-level models. I'm sure you'll get a whole range of suggestions from other inmates.
Regards,
Tom
