Hey guys,
First and foremost thanks to Toms for providing a wonderful platform for newbies like me to post questions and get professional answers for my problems
Now to begin with my problem,
I was fortunate enough(or not) to get a Bose acoustimass 10 or 15 ( I dont know which one) without the Bass module and with a Yamaha RXV-795 AMP from my dad.
I want to hook this up to my TV. So I have connected the TV to the amp with optical cable, and connected the sats directly to the amp. I have not started using this system because of two reasons.
1) I dont have anything to play the lower freqs.
2) I have read a bit on this where it says if I use the bose sats without its bass module then there is a chance that I will end up with a dead amp.
My question to you guys is.
a) Can I use any other sub(suggest some model pls) and connect the sats directly to the amp.( I read something about setting a High crossover though I have no idea what that is or if my amp supports that setting).
b) If not that then how do I get this system up and running?
c) How good is my amp in today's world? (can you relate this to any computer component so I can understand where it stands, eg. its like an i7 5820X or gtx 780)?
d) Any noob friendly guide where I can learn about audio basics?
Please note, any help on this matter is highly appreciated.
I thank you guys for taking out the time to read this.
Thanking you pros in anticipation.
