It’s a 60s unit. 4 watts a side. RCA speaker connections. Sure you can use it. Hopefully the input won't overload with the high output from CD/DVD. Feed CD or PC audio into the tape input and make up speaker leads with RCA plugs making sure not to short the wires.
Don’t over drive it or you could damage the Polks with distortion or worse.
Hope you didn’t pay much for it though!
