I hope I'm in the right place. I just got a second hand 5.1 surround speaker set, and am now looking to upgrade(replace) my Sony ta-v902 stereo amp to something that can also power a centre channel and a passive sub. I mainly use it for music, but might connect a (bluray)dvd player in the future.
specs of the set: [amount][brand][name][max power rating][impedance]
2x Sony SS-E681V 160 Watt 8
SONY SPEAKER SYSTEM SS-W681CR:
- 2x Sony SS-CN68 90 Watt 8
- 1x Sony SS-SR68 55 Watt 8
- 1x Sony SS-W681E - Subwoofer 8
I tried finding a similar question on this forum, but most people are looking to upgrade one part of their existing hardware, whereas I only have speakers, and can't find a receiver/amp that will fit with it. as my current stereo set consists of only sony components (v902 series) , I would really like the amplifier to also be a Sony if possible. also, my budget is quite small, so I'm really only in the secondhand market - which seems like a good thing, as no modern av system works with passive subs anyways.
so my question is this: what Sony receivers/amps can put out 5.1 surround with a passive subwoofer? and although other brands would probably work as well - especially if the list of results is too small and/or none can be aquired - I would prefer them to have a similar look to the rest of the set. (the standard black look of most sony components I think)
also, if anyone knows the name that this set might have (if there is a name for it) then the internet might help find what receiver was originally coupled with these speakers.
thank you
