mart1058 Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 I am planning on buying the Onkyo TX-SR504 receiver, and was wondering if it would be ok if I used my 4.1 satellites as surrounds in my home theater? I have two main speakers, but would like to get surround sound without spending more money at this time. Suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaggy and Scooby Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 Does your reciever have rca preamp outputs. I have been considering doing this to because of my move to a apartment soon. I believe with a couple of radio shack adapters it would be pretty easy to do. The only thing is that I would think that you would have to use the receiver to power a center channel.

mart1058 Posted August 22, 2006 Author Share Posted August 22, 2006 My original idea was to just skip the subwoofer, and go straight to the satellites from the receiver, just take the speaker wire and plug it in. I am not sure about impedances though, I have an inkling that since the receiver is 8 ohm, and the speakers are 4 ohm (?) it may be very easy to blow the speakers...
