Chadnliz, I suspect so. I m wondering whether my 2yrs+ old Denon 3805 AVR 7.1 with 120watts is good enough to power the center n surround speakers. Is considering using Denon as a processor and buying a used multichannel amp. Unfortunately hardly any 240V multichannel amp in audiogon. With multiple channel amp how many more interconect I need & connections? Also wld it be a prob if I use diff brand speaker for my center & surround speakers eg KEF HT 9000 ACE. Any matching issue? I find the new von schweikert center speaker prohibitively expensive to match my frt VR4SR. Any feedbk is appreciated. TQ
Simple set up but difficult for the ignorance
Currently in the process of building a dedicated 2 channel audio room and decided to add 5.1 HT channel. My Conrad Johnson Preamp has a theatre bypass and as such I can make use of the front speakers as my left and right HT speaker. Can I make use of my Denon AVR to power the centre speaker as well as the surround speakers. If so how do I connect the wiring?Also which is the better set up configuration : putting rack behind front speakers and use a long HDMI cable (abt 30ft long) to connect to Projector or putting rack at the side of my couch and connect a long interconnect to the CJ preamp? Your assistance is much appreciated. Happy listening
