Hi everyone,
My 5.1 home theatre DVD receiver unit died last weekend, I am shopping around for a replacement unit but you cannot buy only a DVD receiver unit so I am looking for a solution that allows me to keep my current speakers…
I have 2 questions:
My current speakers connect to the DVD receiver via grip connectors in the back of the unit, is there a way that I would be able to plug these speakers into a different DVD receiver unit that has speaker plug connectors in the back (and not grip connectors)? Is there some sort of adapter or modification that would allow this?
How important is wattage? My current unit specifies a total of 1000W, divided between the 5 speakers and subwoofer. Can I connect my current speakers to a unit with a different total wattage, say 600W or 1100W? Will this blow the system or will it work fine (it might not be as powerful but I don’t mind the compromise).
Thanks for reading my inquiry, any advice is greatly appreciated!
Pete
