Any stereo amplifier these days can connect to a speaker from the 1950's. You will just have to connect one side, left or right, to the speaker. You won't get stereo. If your receiver has the option, you should select mono output to combine the signal of both channels. Never connect the left and right speaker leads together to one speaker.

Sony Str De 597 Connect the receiver to the subwoofer speaker?

At the rear of the receiver there is a single RCA jack (phono socket) that is marked "audio out" and "sub-woofer". This is a mono feed that can be connected to a powered sub bass unit. It will not drive an un-powered bass speaker that does not have an internal amplifier. If the bass speaker is not powered, the audio out from the receiver can be taken to a single channel of another amplifier and the bass speaker then connected to the speaker output of the amplifier.


What receiver is recommended for the Bose Acoustimass 6 speaker system?

The best bet would be a Yamaha or Denon. These are great receivers with a wide product range with plenty of price points. There is nothing made specifically for the Bose systems, any receiver will work. The two brands I mention carry all the hallmarks of quality at reasonable prices while still catering to audiophiles at their high end.

I have a Sony KDL-46EX720 and I'm trying to connect it to my 5.1 Surround Sound system The TV will not allow me to connect it directly so do I need a receiver What kind do I need?

You need a receiver with an HDMI output, such as the Sony STRD series of receivers. Your '5.1 Surround System' sounds either like a surround speaker set with no amplifier, or a system designed for computers. The Sony receivers will amplify passive (non-powered) speakers, but the subwoofer will need to be powered. You will then need to purchase a DVD or Blu-Ray player with an HDMI output. Alternately, you can purchase a Blu-Ray Home Theatre system, which includes the BluRay player and receiver (1 unit), and matching speakers. The Sony BDVE systems are a good place to start.


can you use 7.1 receiver with 6 speakers?

Some where in the 7.1 receiver there is a menu for speaker setup. Set this for the number for speakers you have and how they are arranged around the room. My Denon even ask for the size of each speaker (large or small). and if you are using a sub woofer or not.
