    What the heck do you mean by "AV out"?

    It's easiest if you can take pictures of the port / plug on both your TV and Subwoofer.

    It's basically telling us "Hey guys. I want to connect this to that. How do I do it?" And if you can show us in pictures, you'll get an answer almost immediately.

    That is weird (that your subwoofer has male).

    But if you really need a cable to do that, then the first eBay link would probably be what you want, if it looks like all of the connections match what you need.

    The cable you need is called "3.5mm stereo female to RCA." So feel free to search other more-reliable online retailers (like Amazon and Monoprice) for that search phrase.
