Hook up cd carousel or dvd/cd to vintage receiver?
I hope someone out there has the knowledge needed for my question. I am wondering if I can hook up a new cd carousel or dvd/cd player to my Pioneer SX580 receiver. I was looking at home theater systems and shelf stereo systems and my head began to spin.:confused5: Then I had the thought that maybe what I should do is purchase the component and hook it up to my Pioneer and purchase some new speakers. Can I do this? Is it a good or bad idea? I have always liked the sound quality of my tube receiver. If it will work, I'd also like opinions about some decent speakers, including wireless.
Thanks,
Faith
Hook up cd carousel or dvd/cd to vintage receiver?
Thank you for the replies to my questions.
This is mainly about listening to music, however it did occur to me that maybe we could hook up a dvd/cd player for the TV, too. We aren't very interested in surround sound right now and could do without hooking up a dvd/cd player to it. We already have a dvd/cd player and with all the talk about changes coming, I don't want to invest in anything too expensive in that line.
We originally were looking at something for both, but I don't think that is a good idea right now. If we bought a whole system, I wouldn't want to spend more than $1200, if that. And it would have to include a carousel. So I'm thinking getting a carousel (could be dvd/cd) and some new speakers would be best for now. Then I could hook up my other components to the receiver, too.
I was disappointed that the reply about wireless speakers wasn't positive. We were hoping to have the system go all over the house and outside without a lot of wires.
I'm thinking I'd like to stay below $500 for the carousel and speakers. I can hook up more that 2 speakers, though.
Don't have a picture handy, but I found pics on the web.
Any more suggestions?
Again, thank you for taking the time to address my questions.
