Hey guys Im thinking about upgrading my stereo set-up and I'd like some help. Im not very knowledgeable about speakers and stuff. I know how to hook them up but idk some of the details.
Right now I have a Philips MCM530 stereo system that I got about 5 years ago for my birthday. lol. Absolutely nothing wrong with it, but I want to upgrade to 5.1 sound.
Im thinking about getting a YAMAHA 5.1-Channel Reciever (any thoughts or suggestions on this before I buy it?) and a Yamaha 100w subwoofer (same on this?)
Im also going to get a pair of SONY bookshelf speakers to complete the 5.1 sound.
The questions I have is, would the speakers on my old Philips stereo be useful with this receiver or do they have different hertz or something?
Any suggestions? Im trying to stay on a budget, so I can't go out and buy over $600 of equipment. So any input would be really nice.
note: the receiver comes with an $80 promotional card if I buy it, so I could buy it and the speakers separately and save $80?
thanks
