I Bought The Sony Home Theater Speaker System Sa-ft1h, But It Didn't Come With A Receiver, What Can I Do?

by Tom Frost on January 28, 2010

I would like to know what device can i get for it?, and where can i get it for cheap?


I don’t really know about best buy, but try getting Yamaha or Onkyo, because they have pretty good tech for reasonable prices, and they are really clear when it comes to sound like what saketh k said. Hope this helps ; )

You can buy a receiver. All you bought was a speaker system. You have to power it with an amplifier or receiver (except the sub-woofer which is self powered). There is a wide variety of equipment available for your uses ranging from a couple of hundred dollars up to thousands of dollars. I’d suggest you do some research on AV receivers and learn about the features available and which ones are important to you.

You need a AV reciever. It really depends on your budget, and what you want it do. Do you want a reciever that can decode all major high-definition audio formats, including Dolby Digital TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio?
Or just a standard 5.1 DD/DTS amp?
If you want something to decode all present formats, you need something like Sony’s entry level STR-DG820. An excellent reciever, with great sound.
If you want a standard one go for Yamaha.
I wouldn’t spend a lot on one if I was you, you will find that speaker package is not up to the job of more superior expensive recievers.

I wouldn’t trust too much from bestbuy. Denon makes some cheep recivers and they are really top notch! Though yamaha and sony recivers aren’t bad or anything, cnet.com has some great reviews and you can select your price range.http://reviews.cnet.com/home-audio-revie…
These are still kind of exspensive, but make shure you get HDMI and all the other things to make it a long lasting purchase.

Try bestbuy and go for Yamaha amps. This is because gives ur the best bang for the buck… Also Yamaha is one of the only few companies that uses high current and low wattage thus giving u really nice clarity with sound reproduction.
