Hi Fu, you can attach an external amplifier on the Sony Stereo Receiver. This stereo receiver supports both 5.1 and 7.1 channel speaker system. -Vincent

I dont know about the external amplifier. But 5.1 is ok. I suggest you download a copy of the owners manual. It is available from several different sites - free. That should help with your first question

I use a Yamaha RX-V663 but any good amp should do. I run 7.1 so I got an amp that will do 7.1. If you are running 5.1, you won't need that.

Sorry this took so bloody long (if you'll pardon my French). On the back of the unit you will find a bank of 5.1 outputs (there are none for 6.1); using a 5.1 cable (not supplied, naturally), connect these to the corresponding inputs on your amplifier / receiver. Or, if your amplifier / receiver is so equipped, you can use the coaxial connection (coaxial cable also not supplied). Hope this helps. My first thought was to refer you to the User Manual, but that woulda been snarky, and anyway the darn thing is so confusing it should be called a Useless Manual. But anyway, ciao for now!

In that stand point you wont receive quality sound with a 2.1 system it wont matter what high end speakers you throw at it. The technology in your receiver cant produce what you are looking for.

Yes. Just hook up whatever is considered the main left+right speaker output of your 5.1 to input A of monoprice. Then connect speakers however you desire.

there is NOT a port ON THE AMPLIFIER...Nor on anything I got in my setup..Do like the system

They are powered speakers so they do not need an amplifier. They can be directly connected to computers or airport expresses. They do not support airplay. To use in 5.1 applications, your receiver would need line-level outputs for the channels (many do). You will not need the amplifier stage from your receiver to drive them. I second the opinion that these speakers sound great.

I connected it to the AMP directly. However it doesnt have good sound resolution. I would avoid if you are looking for excellent sound quality.if however you have a Computer 5.1 set like Creative speakers, etc. It is functional...

You can connect this device to any speaker, powered recommend. The ideal set up for a 5.1 speakers is to connect to the receiver input which will then distribute to your speakers. hope this helps. I have been using this for a while and love it. Unfortunate they are difficult to find these days.

Both amps are nice and both are 7.1 vs the 5.1. Can't imagine them not having an option to set up for 5.1. Or you could buy two more satillite speakers for it. But the klipsch speakers are amazing sound! You won't hurt the speakers if you hook up to the 7.1 if that is your concern.

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.

This speaker pkg requires a 5.1 or 7.1 amplifier to work. Adding that to your LED will surely enhance the sound quality of your set up. The speakers alone will not.

Yes, you can even add a 7.1 system. Take a look at the back of the receiver to see all the plugs.

Yeah, you just have to plug in the right sockets and configure the sound card for 5.1. Hope I helped.

I have this USB card and I like it. I use the optical digital output to my home theater (DVD) system and that works well. Do your 5.1 speakers have separate inputs for r, l, sub, and rear? With this system, it has 2 options for 5.1: either digital optical, or 4 separate wires running to inputs in your 5.1 system. In my case, I did not have 4 separate analog inputs for these speakers, so digital optical was my only option. If you do not have digital optical or 4 analog inputs on your 5.1 system, then I would not get this product.

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.

We used them as part of a system that we are building on so we do not have the full 5.1 system yet. We just have a Sony receiver so I would say whatever suits your style and needs best.
