corlane Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 Hello, I want to build a 2.1 system, I was thinking of getting RP 150M and R-12SW but I am not sure what receiver to get. Would a Yamaha A-S301 or A-S501 be enought? I plan on connecting to my pc, for games and music. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The History Kid Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 If you need a tuner, go with the N-S301 or 501. Don't waste your money on the R-12SW - step up to the R-112SW or R-115SW. You are going to want for so much more with the 12SW, and generally those subs have some of the muddiest sound I've heard in a woofer system. I'd also advise stepping up to the RP-160M, the sound quality difference is well worth the cost difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would a Yamaha A-S301 or A-S501 be enought? The A-S301 and A-S501 are actually integrated amps not receivers. Yes either one will be enough but if you can swing for the 501 then go for it.

samhain1969 Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 Concur with everyone else, i.e. the A-S301 or A-S501, the RP-160M over the 150m's and either the 112SW or 115SW sub. You'll have a very nice setup with any combo of these for sure! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
