Making 2.1 Channel Speaker to 4.1 channel?

AnuP

I have Philips MMS4040F 2.1 speaker, i want to add 2 more satellite speaker. with it to make a 4.1.
How to do that? which type of 2 satellites i need to purchase? Is this harm my initial speaker system?

Answer
Adding two more speakers doesn't make it 4.1. For 4.1 you need four independent channels of information but Quadraphonic went out in the 1970's. These days most recordings are either 2 ch or 5 ch.

You can have four speakers set up as 2.1 but I doubt you can do this with the Philips. It almost certainly does not have the preamp outputs required to add an additional amplifier and you can't just connect additional speakers in parallel without overloading and damaging the amplifier in the Philips. Your best bet would be to just start over with a 5.1 receiver.

Akai AS-980 Reciever speakers?

Hippie

I got an akai as-980 quadraphonic reciever. It works but I know nothing about the speaker system. They have to have 4 wires I'd guess because there are 6 speaker inputs with 4 plugs for each speaker. What are they called and are these speakers hard to find? Cam anyone shed some light on this?

Thanks, Matt

Answer
hi matt hippie....the akai as-980 is a four channel stereo tuner/amplifier the four speaker plug/connectors are for connecting your speakers in a way what they called matrix four channel stereo....and the two speaker plug/connectors are for a two channel stereo connection...so you can run these speakers either way as i've just explained....hope this helps you out in some way matt and merry xmas!
