I have a vintage Mirantz 2215 receiver and a pair of pioneer speakers already. Will these be good to go with a 70's receiver and turntable?

As long the impedance match or at least it's in the functional range you should not have any problem, this speakers are 8 oms . If you receiver it's 8 oms or work from 2 to 8 oms you are good to go . However is not recomended connect speakers with different impedance together . With that say it if you others speakers are 8 oms too you won't have any problem at all

Hi, I bought these for my husband who's an electronics buff. He says he doesn't see a reason they wouldn't work with what you currently have. You could probably ask the seller as well, they may be able to provide expert opinion.

a turntable will need its own preamp, or a separate one to act as a go between. Will work in any rca inputs once a preamp is in place. I bought a 20 dollar pyle pro PP444 mini pre-amp on amazon and it works just fine for my turntable which is a vintage pioneer model -PLS40. I have both the SS1000 and SS3000 sony speakers. Obviously the 3000s are better, but make sure you have room as they are big for bookshelf speakers. They are only about 29 dollars more, so well worth it, if you have the space. I use the 1000s as surround speakers as they are easily wall mounted with brackets. I also have a pair of SS6000 floor speakers, which have very true sound, but not very efficient compared to the JBL monitor speakers from the 1970s I just picked up at an estate sale. They don't make them like they used to apparently, although it make be unfair to compare sony to JBL.

I have them paired with an Onkyo TX-NR626 receiver and they sound great. The Onkyo is like these speakers in that it's a good value. You can spend as much as you want to on speakers and receivers, but it takes a lot of money to make gradual steps up the ladder from these.

Yes they should work just fine! Mine are hooked up to a 110w/channel 7:1 surround receiver. Placement of the speakers are critical in getting the results so keep that in mind. Check the instructions for speaker placement on your receiver. Mine were hung and angled down to the listening area. Hope this helps.

Thank you for your inquiry. This should be a good match, but there are a lot of external factors to consider such as the size of the room, the type of music you listen to, and how loud you like your music. We don't carry the KEF LS50 speakers, so we are unable to personally attest to their sound. That being said we've heard great things about paring them with the NAD 7050, but some would recommend using the KEF LS50 speakers with a more powerful amplifier. Please let us know if you have any other questions!

I am no expert. I am using a pair of 10+ years old Jamo bookshelf speakers. I am happy with this setup.

I have 2 Pioneer PLX-1000's and they fit and sound perfect! You will love them!

I have these speakers connected to the Harmon Kardon AVR 2650. I would say it's a middle of the road receiver, but performs very well. The type of AVR you go with will depend on what speaker setup you plan on (5.1, 7.1, 7.2, etc), so it's more of a personal preference. I also, have a pioneer that I've had since the early 2000s and have nothing but good to say about it even after all these years. I'm sorry if this wasn't too much help, but I don't want to give you a line of B.S. because I can only speak from my experience with my receivers. Good luck, and if you have anything else I can be of assistance with feel free to contact me again.Kind regards,Chris I have these speakers connected to the Harmon Kardon AVR 2650.

Work? Sure. Work well? Hard to say. I have these hooked up to a 150 X2 stereo amp and they sound great. They're a very detailed speaker, so if your vintage receiver isn't that great, the flaws will become pronounced.

They should be compatible with most, if not all, receivers. You might have to splice the cables to attach to the alternate receiver. You might want to double check on a Sony AV board but I use to use Sony speakers with my old Technics bedroom setup.

If you are using them for your rear speakers, they will be just fine with your system. We have about same set up and they work very nice.

I have these speakers for my back surround sound speakers. They sound great with my denon 1312 receiver.

A good set of serious speakers for your new receiver would be the Polk LSiM707. It is a blast.

You must run these speakers through a receiver. I have an inexpensive Pioneer 5.1 Receiver and I really like the sound from these speakers. Your TV will not power this speaker system.

Thanks for your question. You will need a receiver for these. It is a wonderful sounding speaker system.

I see that the ohms and amps of the receiver meets the speaker requirements, so I dont see an issue with the combination. The speakers are good for any low end setup, check out others such as Bose, Definitive technology,Energy around the same price range. Listen to sound from these speakers, the preference varies from person to person, some look for low frequency specifically, some look for overall performance...it depends!

It should pair pretty much with any receiver. A vintage piece with a 'Phono' device input will most likely *not* need a phono preamp unit -- which will be necessary for recent receivers.
