no it does not need either one:) it was a really good lil setup for a basic home theatre. the wires were cheaply made and broke off on mine...

you will need a preamp or a reciever with preamp outputs...its a nice unit for the money, it does have a power gain control on the back of the unit if you are pairing it with another amp..good luck

You will need an amplifier or receiver to attach to your computer thru RCA or line out. There is no way to connect direct with out the amplifier or receiver.

You will need a good amplifier only.Also it may be atacched in other Audio-video receivers as an auxiliar component. It is up to you.Regards,Hector

Yes. It's a stereo component that needs to be hooked up to a receiver and the receiver to speakers

Definitely need a receiver for this sound system. It is a great system though once you get it up and running.

All ur receiver needs is a sub pre-out. So an RCA connection. Plug in to LFE(Low Frequency Effects) on sub.

you will have to run the preamp into to an aux. input for it to work. The preamp boosts the signal to a level that the receiver can handle.

Thanks for your question. You will require a receiver or amplifier for a disc player to play.

You will need an amplifier or A/v reciever. Tv output is not sufficient It does not decode the sound so it wont work

No, you will need to supply your own cable to connect to your amp or receiver, either coaxial or toslink.

It just outputs signals. There is no power amplification for speakers, so yes, you need an AV receiver or some amplifier of some sort.

You do not need a receiver for this item as they are powered speaker. I have a mixer just to boost the power & supervise the volume limit.

It doesn't have a built in receiver. You need to plug a basic radio into it

yes, you will need a receiver or an amp to power the two speakers. the sub has an amp built in.

Yes it needs a receiver. This is a passive sound bar. It does not use HDMI connections since it is connected to a receiver through speaker wire connections. I had a realitvely new receiver and decided to go to a sound bar and subwoffer instead of a 5.1 speaker system in my new house. The sound from this unit is unreal! It fill a large great room (18 x 25 ft) very well after I adjusted the speaker configuration for the room and my equipment.
