you only need to power 2 small speakers. you don't need a lot of power. Any receiver will work.

Since these are mid-size speakers, they really don't require a lot of power to sound great. Even 50W per channel for two channels is plenty. I'd shop around and decide based on what else you'll be using a receiver for, such as video. If audio is all you want/need then finding an amp should be a cinch. Onkyo, Pioneer and Harman Kardon would all be great choices for these speakers, it will just come down to personal taste and preference, as well as price considerations. Hope that helps and good luck!

I would advise getting a small sound board and an interface and hook these up to them

I would recommend NOT using these with a different reciever. the Sub unit has a LF and HF passthrough filter system. the highs are directed through the amp to the satelittes. the lows to the sub, and neighter gets the other. if you can really control the passed FRQ's and keep the lows out of the signal you should be able to use them.

You need to power them with a receiver. You would run your computer into that.

I agree with Andrew. Get a 90* RCA adapter. Amazon sells these also, and they are not expensive. They are sold as DB Link right angle adapters. Have used these myself, and they work great. Hope this helps!

Bob, just about any 5.1 or more surround sound receiver that I carry would work here. Depends what features you would like(zone 2, bluetooth, airplay, wifi). Eric C

These are computer system speakers. They would improve your sound tremendously but I think you may want a surround system or a sound bar with simulated surround. Best bet is to buy a receiver and 6 speakers

Thanks for your question. You will need a receiver for these. It is a wonderful sounding speaker system.

I would suggest a receiver that is close to a 1000 wt range. These speakers are great in a 5.1 or 7.1 system. Pioneer receivers are more expensivebut they are better in my opinion.

There are a lot of nice receivers out there. I would get something to handle the wattage and the 7.1 to really enjoy the sound quality. I think as far as brands go it's what you like. I wouldn't go cheap, you just got some great speakers. I would look for something to enhance them. Make sure you get a receiver compatible with your speakers, wiring and so on. Check out the Leviton JBL site...that's what I did.

You will want an amp....receivers tend to be weak for speakers like these.....In theory you could hook them up using a 1/4 inch by 3.5mm audio connection running off the headphone jack on an mp3 player and they will play....They won't sound good, distorted and weak but they work there.....You will want an amp though....Otherwise you are better off hooking up some computer speakers to your audio source. If it's in your range....go with QSC GX3 you can't go wrong....and it's tough just like these speakers. You will want power to get the most out of them.

You would need a receiver. I would recommend either Yamaha or Denon budget around $300 - $500

you can use any speakers with them that play on normal stereos. anywhere from 4-16 ohms should work.

I like Bang and Olufsen but they are very expensive. I would say look into yamaha speakers and try to get high power speakers to handle this receiver. The receiver has a lot of power. thanks

I use these at home in my couch. With that said an amp that is 50w with a low pass filter will work. It doesn't have to be super high end because you probably won't play any frequencies 500hz tops.

These are not intended for home use or with a stereo receiver as they are a PA system speaker and require a pro audio power amp and a mixer to function properly. So something like a 2000 watt amp that runs around 500 watts a side at 8 ohm would be a good match for these.
