Totally new to this stuff and just got the bose acoustimass 16. Any suggestions on best receiver to hook these up to? Is HDMI that important to have on a receiver?
pity boy with bose. any cheap reciever will be the best choice... cos they all the same to bose. and in the future if you wanna up grade. you need to get rip of bose first. good luck
How familiar are you with Bose? Have you listened to them and have you listened to other speakers.
If you have not listened to any other speakers then you may not know the downside. They emit sounds and that is about it. to some that is enough. To some, Bose is a status symbol, sound is not important. To most who've listened to other speakers, it is utter crap.
You can always sell the Bose and use the money for better speakers and a nice receiver.
Or you could keep it and use just about any receiver on the market.
