I have a Panasonic Bluray player with RCA audio out and two Bose speakers with speaker wire input. Will this product work or do I have to have an amp

97% chance that you will need an amp. Check on the back of your bluray player -- Where you see the RCA jacks -- does it simply say "Output"? Or does it also show a number, such as 70 ohm? If does not have a number near it, you will need an amp.Besides -- even if you did, and you have Bose speakers -- you may want to invest in a good amp. At which point, depending on the amp you purchase, it may be wire-to-wire or it may be wire-to-RCA. And if you get one like that, these cables will work perfectly.

It has more to do with the output of your player and the expected input of the speakers. Example: If the output of the player is 75W per channel (per speaker) and the speakers are 75W, you should be fine. If the speakers are 150W, it may still work, but it won't be optimal. I have a Denon system that outputs 90W per channel and I split each channel to two speakers. This provided 45W per speaker and my speakers are 150W speakers. In this situation, I had to use a mini amp per each set of speakers to boost the signal.

An amp.is probably required to power the speakers if their watt rating is high. If the wire is RCA to bear end speaker you could give it a try directly to the speakers. If it's RCA to RCA I wouldn't cut the end of the wire for speaker connection.

If I understand your question correctly, you have a Blue Ray player that has 2 RCA output jack per channel on the back of the player, and your speakers have 2 wire input jack per speaker. You will need to run enough wire between these jacks (the ones on amazon) and your speakers and then plug the RCA jacks into the back of your blue ray player.Check the Blue Ray player documentation to make sure the Audio Output jacks work with speakers, amps or both (normally they would be rated or marked, 60 ohms, etc) also check what the watts per channel or total watts to make sure it is pushing that power thru those output jacks If I understand your question correctly, you have a Blue Ray player that has 2 RCA output jack per channel on the back of the player, and your speakers have 2 wire input jack per speaker.

I had to buy an amplifier. I suspect the output of the Bluray player will not have enough power to drive the Bose speakers.

I am not totally sure. I know that when I bought this product i was trying to use it on my Yamaha reciver to connect my unpowered subwoofer and this did not work. I returned it with no problems.

It would work in a basic fashion. But remember it doesn't have any filtering so any switching may generate transients that could be an issue with that much amplifier power. May not be an issue if you don't intend to use the phono preamp section. Another option if you don't need the phono section is to look for a Blu-Ray player with its own level control (which may have a bonus of control via its remote). And also remember, there will be no tone control or EQ, so it better sound okay without it.

At my house, I have a supplemental amplifier, and it's enough to power three sets of stereo in-ceiling speakers, and a set of stereo outdoor Bose speakers without any problems. Just check for your receiver's output specifications to make sure it will be enough. Otherwise, simply purchase another amplifier just for the speakers.

It won't work without an amplifier. I have this same amp and speakers, this will work. Your need some speaker wire too. Pyle Home PCAU46A 2 x 120 Watts Mini Power Amplifier with LED Display

From the Bose web page: *Designed for use with your stereo or home theater receiverSo--yes, you do... unless...Of course, your flat screen output might have enough wattage to drive acceptable sound from your Bose speakers, but it's likely that you won't have enough volume without annoying levels of noise from the low-powered amp in your flat panel's audio wiring. If your TV has outputs for "external speaker" you might make those work to drive the Bose. With just a "line out" or "audio out" jack you may get some sound, but you probably need an amplifier or receiver to be happy. Good news--those are incredibly cheap used these days in the homes of baby boomers everywhere and your local Goodwill...

Yes you can, as tom said this particular model has the Pre-Amp built in, which means if you have speakers with an amp built in and rca connections in the back it will work by directly plugging it into the speakers. however, as Tom has also said, If your speakers are unpowered and hooked up to an amplifier, it must then be hooked up to the amplifier instead of the speakers.

You would need to have a receiver or amplifier to use this unit. Speakers would depend on what amp or receiver you use.

It needs an actual amplifier, but also using this Preamp with Bose 901s is kind of like having generic Cheerios everyday while there is a freezer full of Filets.You are better off getting a used name brand receiver (preamp and power amp) unless you have a power amp already in which case you will seriously want a better preamp.

The PDMN58 speakers need an amp. Check amp specs to see if there is a jack for a media player

The Home kit has 1/8 mini plug output, and includes the 1/8 to RCA type cord. If needed, you can get an adapter cord from Radio Shack that will let you plug into almost any type audio you have. I have mine plugged into an old player with RCA plugs, so I just plugged it in. It would depend on what type plug the Bose has as to which adapter you might need.

it depends on how much sound you are looking to get. if you wish to power up with only rca connectors, then yes, you will need another amp to get sound. this unit does have a main output for speakers but they are only for bare threads. as far as sound goes, it will do ok in a smaller room but don't expect to be blown away.

There is a lot of information missing in your question. If your intention is to take the DVD player's or TV's analog audio output to feed a coaxial (S/PDIF) or optical (Toslink) input on your speakers, then this unit would do the job. If you give me your equipment models I could give you more info. Take care !

If you plug the turntable directly into the Bose speaker amp (which takes regular 1/4" RCA jacks, I assume), the output will not be loud enough. You need to plug the turntable into a small preamp (search "turntable preamp") to boost the signal from phono-level to line-level output. You can find these preamps for $15 or $20. You use one set of RCA cables to go from the turntable to the preamp, then a second set to go from the preamp to the Bose speaker amp.

You'll still need a proper amp. The output from this device isn't enough to power speakers alone.

Cut the plug in off and wire it up to one of your speakers... No amp needed

I'm using the amp for my flat screen tv, which only has a digital audio out. The tv's speakers aren't very good. I run the digital audio out to a digital to analog converter. Then it's a simple matter of hooking up some speakers. BTW, the amp is well worth the money if you can use its configuration.

This CD changer is made to use with the Bose radio/cd player. It is wired specifically for this application. The changer by itself has no speakers, amp., etc.
