Bose Jewel speakers
|
New member Username: PaulvPost Number: 1 Registered: Apr-08 | Hi Folks, I am new here and hoping that I can get some help. I recently purchased some Bose jewel speakers the ones that come with the lifestyles 48 system. In retrospect it may have been a mistake and I may end up selling them. I am hoping I can get some help. I did not get the sub to go with it. Can I hook those speakers to another type of sub or do I need to purchase a Bose one? Also, can connect to a normal Denon receiver? I am really getting the run around by Bose so I am hoping that I can get some help here. |

Gold Member Username: GavdawgAlbany, New York Post Number: 1125 Registered: Nov-06 | if you connect those speakers directly into the receiver, they will blow in a heartbeat. IMHO, if you can sell them, that may be your best bet. You can get them to work with a Bose bass module, but you'd have to buy it from ebay, as well as adapters to make the speakers accept the non-bose speaker wire. This would be a better choice, sonically much better than the Jewel Cubes, and more convenient for you as well. http://www.orbaudio.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWCATS&Category=8 The Orb audio designer is well known in the industry, having worked for Anthony Gallo acoustics, a highly regarded audiophile speaker company. |
