i think if the 5.1 speaker is work good, the sound card work good with your speaker 5.1i think it is not important that is 10 years old

No. Buy the 7.1 channel version and you will be able to have 5.1 in one room, and a two speaker system in another... but not with this model.

Absolutely! This receiver lets you use a setup "up to" 7.2 channels. The speaker inputs are labeled for 5.1 as well. That's what I'm doing right now, secure in the knowledge that I can always add another two satellites and a second subwoofer later. Take a look at a picture showing the back of the receiver, the input panel, and you'll see it's labeled for 5.1 as well. Hope this helps!

Yes, you can. Think of this system as an invisible wire to your speakers. You hook the speakers themselves to the receiving units with speaker wire, just like they were at the back of your sub. Then at the sub, you hook the wires from the transmitter in the old spot where you pulled out the original wires that went to your back speakers, and it should work like a charm.

I haven't really used 5.1 surround, but I think for the jacks that supply sub, left surround right s, center, right and left front spekers you need to put a stereo splitter on the three jacks on the card. I'm not for sure but I know each of the three jacks supply two of the audio, that's all I know about surround. U might want to read the manual about which jack does what

Yes, you can do 5.1 as I currently do now. But the receiver can configure to run on 7.1 and even 7.2 speaker system.

Yes they can be connected to another system just make sure you have the bose speaker adapter.

I'm can't answer that. I installed this because my older 5.1 surround sound system has only analog inputs - one for each speaker. Placing this between the dvd player (coaxial out) and the older 5.1 system did give me surround sound. However, it appears it is no longer working. Straight from China and built to last only so long.

Thanks, I ordered the cables but now I'm not sure how to hook it up to my 6.1 Sony receiver. All the rear jack labels match but I have one conflict:The Sony DVD has 2 surround back but my receiver has one. I am currently using the receiver to mix the extra info to the rear (5.1) as I don't have any physical back speakers. If I set the DVD player to 5.1 & omit the cable, will I lose any info? I know it sounds confusing but I just want to make sure the player will send the info to the available speakers.

Thanks for your question. You cannot connect all the items you mention simultaneously. This is a fantastic sounding speaker. World Wide Stereo is 35 years old and a very proud BEATS dealer.

Sure. If you don't connect any Surround Back speakers, you've only got 5.1 channels.

Hi, for this Sony Home Receiver, it has an option to set the sound system to 5.1 even it is listed as a 7.1 receiver. This can be achieve by not connecting a speaker on the surround back L/R of the receiver and have an auto calibration mic set the appropriate settings automatically. Hope this helps. -Ely

I'M NOT SURE WHAT YOU ARE ASKING!!! I USED REGULAR SPEAKER WIRE TO CONNECT TO FIVE EXTERNAL SURROUND SPEAKERS. THE SPEAKER WIRES WERE CONNECTED TO THE PROPER pioneer audio outputs on the back of the amplifier. The subwoofer came wit a single output cable that plugged into the back of the pioneer specifically marked for the subwoofer. Hope this helps.

These Amplifiers are for floor speakers only. You can hook up 4 speakers if you want but it was not designed for 5.1 surround. Its a Kickin' amplifier. Lot of power....Hope this helps.

Have done all this, but how do I get 5.1 sound from the external source? Sound only coming through the front speakers. What input should I be using on the receiver to get 5.1 sound from the external source? TIA.

I wish that I could help you out. I'm using the speaker's from the home theater system that I already had hooked up. There are 100watt wall and ceiling shelve size speaker's. I do believe that the speaker's you do use, will have to be speaker's for surround,(FL&gt;Center&gt;FR&gt;RL&gt;RR&gt;) for 5.1 system. The rear speaker's are also known as(SL&gt;SR). If you use just any kind of speaker's, like for stereo. Then you wont get the separation, any true affect of surround sound. I wish that I could help you out more, and hope that this will help you some what. Nick
