You can't. You can only buy this as a package. I would recommend getting a better receiver if you were getting separates.

This unit needs to be connected to an amplifier to work and you will need speakers. I don't know if a stereo receiver will work.

No speakers and this saves money if you have old speakers laying around. It's just a receiver with cd player and input for flashdrive (usb) and ipod and aux (3.5mm) jack. Yamaha does have similar versions with speakers and different colors.

I am looking to buy this receiver and wanted to know the same thing. Did you ever get an answer?

Actually, I bought an old Sony home theater receiver from Craigslist for $20. These older receivers (the ones with Dolby Prologic but not Dolby Digital and/or DTS) have A and B speaker outputs, which can both be run at the same time for a total of four speakers in stereo. If you're not put off by the idea of buying things from Craigslist, this might be the best and most affordable option (affordability being, I assume, the biggest criterion if you're buying these speakers, as was the case for me). I hope this helps. :)

No speakers come with it. It's only the main head unit. It's sad how cheap zunes became.

Honestly, buy a new receiver. You need this, and then you can continue using the speakers you have. Trying to do this any other way is not a good idea, and will end up costing you the same amount of money and continued frustrations on lack of HDMI inputs and outputs.

Definitely need a receiver for this sound system. It is a great system though once you get it up and running.

You do need a receiver. I went with a Sony receiver. They are well priced and are good quality. These speakers not being wireless sort of ages this system now. Might want to keep that in mind. There are good all in one (receiver included) surround systems out there now. Do your homework.

I got a couple additional ones on ebay. I would caution you: many of them come from England or China, and though the refurb job is fine, they will come with UK power adapters. You'll need to get a UK to US adapter if you're in the States. The receivers themselves usually seem to go for $20-$40 apiece. Also, any set of computer speakers will work. I got speakers at a Staples (Cyberacoustics) for about $25 with a little subwoofer, and it's a perfect pairing; no computer needed.I hope this helps.

It is the same system and its a WAAAAAY better deal here on Amazon. The system sounds amazing and actually is better than the $2,000.00 Bose system I had before. It does not come with a receiver though.

What I would do - is get an older receiver off of fleabay or crglst. But these will take up a lot of desk space. Once you get away from the top of the line models - some old stuff sells for quite cheap. One quick check on crglst for me locally gets - http://raleigh.craigslist.org/ele/4876097189.html

Just use speaker cable to hook up to receiver/amplifier. Speakers draw power from amplifier so no power cable needed.
