Do these require an audio interface?

You can connect to them via bluetooth if it's the bluetooth-enabled version, or a 3mm audio-to-RCA cable.

Can i use an active subwoofer with these wired and with bluetooth if my line in has a y before it, one to feed the sub and one to feed the mackie?

The speakers' top boxes will receive Bluetooth. How you connect them is up to you.
