Q. how do speaker systems work? if the speaker is 8 ohms, is each component 8 ohms?


Answer
Yes, you can certainly replace the drivers in a home speaker. It's best to replace them with the same
one made by the manufacturer. For example, if you were replacing a Yamaha tweeter, you would contact Yamaha's website, and ask then how much a replacement tweeter would cost for your particular model of speaker. They would then ask you what the model number of the speaker system was, and tell you how much a replacement driver would cost. Pretty simple. Driver screws are usually the Philips-head variety, which can be easily unscrewed with a Philips screwdriver. Speaker drivers usually have a small metal clip on the end of the speaker, which removes easily. You will also find a metal tab on the bottom of the driver. Just make sure that you observe the proper polarity when replacing the clips. The tabs are usually marked for polarity, so the whole procedure should be fairly easy. Yes, if the speaker is 8 ohms, the individual components are 8 ohms.

Is it possible to connect my blu ray player directly to 5.1 channel speakers?

I am confused. I have a Philips blu ray player with the following audio outputs: Analog audio Left/Right out, HDMI output, Component Video output, Digital coaxial out, Ethernet, Analog audio 5.1 channel out. Can anyone please tell me if I can connect it directly to a 5.1 channel speaker system ? (that is, with out a separate receiver).

Thank you.



Answer
You need to connect it to an amplifier or amplifier/receiver that handles 5.1 Dolby surround. The bluray player only has a pre-amplifier built in and that only supplies enough signal for the amplifier to use to produce the sound. The player itself cannot drive speakers. You don't need anything really fancy.
