Hello, I have a STRDH830 Sony 7.1 Channel A/V Receiver, it has a 980 Watts total output power. Does this speaker system can work on it?

Yes, it should. Subwoofer is rated at 150watts and speakers sound great in 7channel as well as 5.1 channel out. Speaker system comes with available wires and a single rca type cable is included for subwoffer. For your sony receiver you'll need to purchase banana plugs in order to use with front speaker output on receiver. Beware, subwoffer is heavy and can be used in auto or manual mode for detecting audio signal from receiver. Purchased my system from J-tech digital, came in big secure safely packed box. If purchased, enjoy. One more thing speakers can be wall mounted in which a wall mount kit needs to be purchased or speakers comes with own mounting stands included. Yes, it should.

This is not the type of amp to use for home audio, yes your speakers can handle the wattage, remember you want a lot of watts, not for noise but true solid sound at low output also. No your old sony receiver will not work as a preamp for this unit, it is a DJ style amp. Great to daisy chain, etc.. Honestly your best option is find a great condition Carver MXR2000 or MXR130 it will push cerwin xls215's towers to glass breakage!

I bought a cerwin vege cv-900 power amp to powe those, and as my main receiver I have a pioneer elite receiver 9.2 ch 140 wat per ch.you can try the sony if you have it already.it will work but I think more power is needed for better quality sound for the vegas

This is a good amp but it's for a small system. Like for myself, with no loud music all the time, just once in a while to show off. Lol. Your speakers have a range of 400 watts if I'm not mistaken, so it should power it since it's a 500w model. But I would recommend you to get a 1k watts amp. Kenwood's a pretty good brand for this. At least mine does the work like a charm.

i think you will be fine just do turn it to load what i mean is 200watt should be 100watts now i do beleave here is a link about 4ohz on sony 1040http://www.avsforum.com/t/1494249/sony-str-dn1040-with-dynaudio-4-ohm-speakers

No! This amp cannot power those speakers. Get a sony STRDH130 2 channel receiver

It is better to have speakers with wattage ratings higher than the receiver. 150 watt speakers will work fine with this receiver as long as they can handle 8ohms. Check the ohm ratings for the speakers, you did not say what kind of speakers you have so I can't answer that. Look on the rear of the speakers for the ohm rating.

I bought this and it works well. You will need to by an amplifier for this subwoofer if your receiver does not have one specifically for a subwoofer. I bought the Bash 300S Digital Subwoofer Plate Amplifier 300W RMS from Parts Express. I works very well with my surround sound. Be sure to secure the speaker grate. The putty they send you does not work so well. I used silicone to hold the grate in. It will vibrate loose if you do not.Hope this helps

Bose keeps wattage ratings on speakers a secret. I am driving this Acoustismass center channel speaker with a 140W per channel Sony surround receiver and it performs flawlessly on the high end. Hope this helps.

Dear Jeff,Thanks for your inquiry. To do what you're looking to do, you would need to go to the next model up in the Sony line, the STRDN1050. The STRDH750 does not have a line out for an external amplifier. Please let me know if I can be of additional assistance.Regards,Eric CohenWorld Wide Stereo

I haven't tried it on those receivers, mine was a Marantz. If they are equipped with the standard banana plugs the answer would be yes. It should say on the Sony website description of those receivers what they have.

Can the Energy Take 5.0 rear speakers be connected wirelessly? If so, what would it take to do this? I have a Sony STR-DH 800 receiver which is S-air ready, and I already have an active subwoofer, so only need 5 speakers. Thanks for you help.

Speakers do not have to come the same manufacturer. In my case I am using the stereo unit with an existing built-in speaker system. There are several stereo speakers in different rooms so in my case I need & use an impedance matching unit so that I do not burn out the amplifier in the stereo receiver. If I recall correctly the Onkyo unit I have has to be connected to 8 ohm impedance speakers. I don't recall the power output per channel, but I suspect you could get away with speakers rated for 30 watts or greater. Hope this helps.

In the past I have had to deal with mismatched speakers of high wattage. I used a matching impedance amplifier.. Unacceptable here, So a possible solution could be, hook it up as normal. If it works to your satisfaction all is well. If not go to Radio Shack and buy a 4 ohm-1 watt resistor and connect it in series. Depending on speaker design, that could bring out the power to an acceptable level. If that fails... well ... its filter stuff and the cost is probably unacceptable.

The receiver is ok, but I don't think it will meet your expectations. I don't think the receiver can handle 1200 watts speakers. Handle means, utilize the full potential of 1200 watts speakers. That is my opinion.

If your receiver has a sub-woofer output, it should work. The power part of the speaker is supplied by plugging into a wall outlet.

Yes and yes. But I advise to get a receiver if you can for more impact. I highly recommend that you get the Sony STRDH720 7.1 Channel 3D AV Receiver (Black), to accompany the sub and speakers. It is priced well for all of the amazing specifications that it has. It has lasted a year so far and the sub has lasted two years so far. They work well together.P.S. - The sub has an automatic turn on and shut off switch. But it will turn off if there's low volume or only dialogue put through the speakers. So I just keep it permanently on. There's no buzz or fuzz in the speaker, so you won't notice anything.Highly, highly recommend!!! Yes and yes.
