I am really new to HT so please bear with.
After some research and some help from people in this forum (one of the best I found so far), I am in the midst of buying a Toshiba SD4700 DVD-Player along with a JBL NSP-1 package along with JBL's sub. Now the reason why I decided to buy the 4700 is because it has a built-in decoder for Dolby, so to save some space in my cabinet without buying a receiver.
But do I still need an Amplifier for the speakers? Does the speaker package or the DVD player normally have Amp built-in? Or does the receiver has that built-in? If the last is the case, why would anyone buy a DVD with decoder since they'll need a receivre anyways for the amps.
Thanks for answering a newbie's question
