I'm totally ignorant when it comes to pro audio, and nothing I own or
will probably own for a very long time qualifies or will qualify as
"high-end" ... be gentle. That being said:
I own an Aiwa Mini-Shelf System (CX-NA71) which is pretty much broken.
The CD player stopped working years ago -- and I even lost the
envelope containing the instructions on how to receive a replacement
when a class-action lawsuit was brought against them... however, that
is not my concern. The headphone input has been basically destroyed
(a very long story that I do not care to tell!
, and as a result I
can only get sound out of both speakers with a hilariously stupid,
McGuyver-esque homemade solution (you don't want to know).
I would like to continue using the same speakers (SX-FNA71), but want
to replace the receiver. Although I see the CX-NA71 systems being
eFlay'd on occasion, I don't have to get another one; rather, I would
prefer a new audio/video receiver entirely. I run my computer's sound
through the receiver, and I'm getting tired of not having it half the
time. What would y'all suggest? I have a very sad, low budget and
can't really spend more than $120. (Take time to laugh at me, now.
Go ahead!)
....
(done?)
I was mainly just wondering if there are any requirements for the
receiver to meet the criteria of the speakers themselves. If I recall
correctly, they're 120W. (Again, I know nothing about audio equipment
in general.)
Thanks,
Perry
