Solved! Active speakers on new str-dn1080

[edmond1971]

Hello, my name is Edmond from the Netherlands.
I have a question about my new Sony amplifier.
How can i connect my active speakers to my str-dn1080?

If you have a line level output on that thing, you can use that. If not, you need new speakers. Connecting a power amp to already powered speakers is not a good idea.

You can get a speaker to line level converter. That will give you an RCA unbalance connection for the active speakers.

If you have more than one pair of powered speakers and want to use them as front and surrounds

Begs the question, why do you want to hook up an ALREADY AMPLIFIED box to active speakers having its own redundant built-in amplifier?
