Hi everyone well the receiver i bought 20 years ago hasnt been working so well lately so i went out and bought a system off a friend of mine , 20 years ago since i set up my system so i am very rusty with all this new modern systems, plenty of advice will be needed
First of all i will list what i have that i can use
Yamaha RX-V575 AV Receiver
Cambridge Audio SX120 Subwoofer
Cambridge Audio S50 Centre Speaker
Cambridge Audio S20 Stand Mount Speakers (One set 2 speakers)
Cambridge Audio SX50 Stand Mount Speakers (One set 2 speakers)
Bose Interaudio 2000xl Book Shelf Speakers (One set 2 speakers)
LG Network BLU RAY Disc Player (Model BD370)
LG 42 Inch Full HD 1080P LCD TV (Model LD450)
A little dated but hopefully will do the job for me ,
So my yamaha is 7.1 or 7.2 its hard to figure out and what i need to know is which speakers should i use for front speakers , Surround Speakers, or how exactly does 7.1 or 7.2 work how many speakers should i have
On the rear of the yamaha the speaker ports are Front, Centre, Surround, Surround back / bi amp / zone b (All same one)
So thats whats confusing me what speakers go where.
Then the subwoofer preout on the amp has two ports labeled 1 & 2 , but the subwoofer itself only has one so which should i connect to
Then the Bose speakers are they even suitable to connect up to the amp the specs of them are as follows
SPECS: INTERAUDIO 2000:
CABINET SIZE....9"W X 14"H X 71/2"D
WOOFER SIZE....6"
TWEETER SIZE...3"
OHMS.....4 to 8
WATTAGE.....10 to 70W MAX
Next question , the room was prewired for rear speakers but the wires are not marked so i dont know which one is + and which is - is their a way of finding out this or if i connect wrong way around will they do damage
Thanks every one for reading this and would be very grateful for any suggestions on the set up thats ahead of me
