If the fuse is not located on the back of the amplifier near the power cord, it is likely located inside on the circuit board. If you are not familiar with repairing electronic devices, DO NOT OPEN THE AMPLIFIER. There are dangerous voltages present inside the amp, even when the power cord is unplugged. Contact the store where you purchased the amplifier to recommend a repair depot.
If your speakers do not have an amplifier (excluding the subwoofer, which almost always has one), you will need a surround amplifier to power them. The DVD player connects to this receiver.
You need a 5.1 Decoder and an amplifier to drive the speakers, most companies build these items into their RECEIVERS which comes with the switching you heed with most home theater systems.
A Class D amplifier is a switching or pulse-width modulation amplifier. Class D amplifiers can have either digital or analog inputs and are used for home theater system and mobile phones.
It should be a 1.25 amp (1250ma) "slow-blow" fuse.
Usually there will be lights or equipment in the house that will not operate. If all of the branch circuit breakers or fuses have not tripped or blown the only conclusion left is that the main breaker or fuse has tripped or blown.
A home theatre is a generic term for a system that comprises a television, speakers, a media player and an amplifier. The speaker is just one of the components.
The most common cause is bad wiring. Check the connections or replace the speaker wiring. If that does not work, check which speaker has the problem and see if a cone is blown. To do this, place your ear near the cone and gently press it in (don't push to hard). If the cone is blown you will hear a raspy rubbing sound when the cone moves. Replace the cone or the speaker if it is blown. If this does not work, change your speaker connections around to see if it is the amplifier.
Some of the more well known companies that manufacture home theater amplifiers include Yamaha, Bose, Harmon Kardon, Panasonic, Philips, Pioneer, Samsung, Sharp and Sony.
The average price of a Marantz amplifier costs between $959 to about $2750, excluding tax and delivery. This depends on whether you want an integrated amp, or one that provides the complete home theater experience.
YES!! .... But only if it has a digital input. Many DVD home theater systems cannot add other players to their system. They are essentially closed systems with the amplifier, tuner and player all built into one.
If you have more speakers than the receiver has outlets for, you can't use them. Connecting more speakers than the amplifier is designed to handle will shorten the life of the amplifier and possibly result in a over-current shutdown.
No, this is a passive subwoofer designed for car audio applications. Modern home theatre receivers have no amplifier for the subwoofer and expect a powered sub.
