I want buy the Bose Acoustimass 10 series IV..Can I connect into my Onkyo HT-R570 7.1 ? 75w per channel in 8 ohms and 130w per channel in 6 ohms

This is right from the owner's manual: ConnectivityAcoustimass 10 system:Compatible with A/V receivers and amplifiers rated from 10 to 200 watts per channel, rated from 4 to 8 ohmsI would say yes.

You can connect any stereo to it with surround sound. I hooked up my Sony stereo Head and it works great and sound truly Bose

Hey Frank - My Bose Acoustimass 10 is hooked up to an Onkyo TX-NR414 - which is the A/V receiver Bose was recommending at the time I bought it. While yours is a little more capable it should work just fine. With this number of speakers you will not be able to take advantage of the 7.1 capability of your Onkyo - but rather 5.1 - which seems every bit immersive to me.Hope this helpsTom

hello I have mine hooked to a onkyo model 609 and they perform very nicely especially for the price I think these will work well for you with your set up the bass is descent and the highs and mids are pretty good so get and enjoy

50 - 500 watts is the range provided by the manual. 50 watts per channel is what you need for a minimum. I have an Onkyo TX-NR818 with 135 watts per channel powering the units along with 7 other speakers for a 9:2 surround system.

I haven't set them up yet -- waiting for the remodel to complete. I bought a Sonos Connect:Amp to pair them with -- it's rated at Class-D (2x 55W, 8 ohms). The Sonos Amp is extremely versatile, can't wait to hear it with the Wharfedales. Should be very good. http://www.sonos.com/shop/products/connectamp

I currently use a Denon AVR 4311CI. It manages 140 W at 8 Ohms or 170 at 6 Ohms on 9 or 11 channels. The sound results precise and musical, the volume level can rise very high without loss of clarity and precision.

Hi,I bought the Dayton Audio HTS-1200B home theater speaker set plus SAT-BK Satellite speaker pair to make them work with my ONKYO TN-XR626 7.2, all associated with a subwoofer Canton AS 85.2 Aktiver (200/250Watt, made in Germany). What I can say is that it makes the effect of a bomb. I am fully satisfied with these little speakers.

No problem at all. Also for future reference, say if you have an amp with four and eight ohm binding posts, just wire the 6 ohm speakers to the 8 ohm posts and rock and roll!

We have ours connected to our onkyo txnr717 amp and it has a dual source. We pre-amped out to a secondary amp that runs our bose 151. Our secondary amp is an inexpensive (strdh100) sony that we are powering 3 sets of bose through a switching box.

Jan, To error on the side of safety, I would hesitate to drop below the rated impedence of your receiver. You might over heat the Yamaha especially at higher volumes.I am running the ns-310 center with two ns-210's for left and right on a 7.1 system. The rest of my speakers ARE 8 ohms, BUT my av receiver (Denon 1912) is rated at 6 to 16 ohms.The center speaker you are considering, has an exceptionally clear, crisp sound.Hope this helps, Rick

This is the answer as provided by Onkyo in the manual. 110 Watts/Channel @ 8 ohms (FTC) * 170 Watts/Channel @ 6 ohms (IEC) * 185 Watts/Channel @ 6 ohms (JEITA) * WRAT-Wide Range Amplifier Technology

Baig, thanks for the thought on the speakers. I'm using a brand new Onkyo 7.1ch home theater set rated 130W per channel. On top of that, I've swapped in my old Polk Audio speakers for the fronts, which are rated 150W each. So power is not the issue!

I see that the ohms and amps of the receiver meets the speaker requirements, so I dont see an issue with the combination. The speakers are good for any low end setup, check out others such as Bose, Definitive technology,Energy around the same price range. Listen to sound from these speakers, the preference varies from person to person, some look for low frequency specifically, some look for overall performance...it depends!

I am using an Onkyo TX-NR709 receiver 110W/CH. This receiver is 4 Ohm capable hence can drive the ML ESL speakers. However, I find the power to be insufficient to get the real "pop" out of these speakers and hence I am planning on pairing it with a power amplifier. So short answer, yes if you have a 4ohm capable receiver... but performance is a little "weak".

I actually contacted Onkyo about a similar thing. I want to run a 7.1.2 and use an amp with the RCA line out jacks. All I need to do is get an amp to power from the RCA jacks and I'm good to go. You should be able to run it with a rear pair and 4 atmos speakers, but something would have to be doubled up on the actually timing with the Dolby computing. It won't be a true 7.1.4...but you can run a true 7.1.2 with this system and an amp to power the additional speakers.

I cannot say for sure, but I use a Bose Acoustimass with our Marantz. I just don't know about versions. Ours is at least 20 years old so I just can't verify it is the same architecture as the series you referenced.

I do and have had no issues, just awesome music. Onkyo TX-8255 Stereo Receiver Stereo RMS Power: 50W per channel x 2, into 8 ohms
