mga master,
patulong nmn po...i want to upgrade my set up..kso i dont know where to start....currently i have a sammy htz220 (HTIB). pde b bli new speaker then palitan ung sammy speaker or receiver muna....my budget is around 20k..khit paunti unti sna muna. our room size is around 5m x 6m...thanks in advance...
I also have an HT-Z220 and am in the process of upgrading. So far I have bought a 5.1 speaker system from diy_master (the awesome Anthony of A-Audio). I will first try to connect these speakers to my HT-Z220 receiver/DVD player and see if I am satisfied with the result.
I'll use the existing speaker cables of the Z220 because of the proprietary audio connectors at the back of the Z220. According to Anthony, it's about 22-gauge so it's pretty thin, but worth a try. Since the cables are permanently connected to the included speakers, I'll simply cut off the cable at about 1 foot from where they are connected. Then I'll attach the cables directly to the A-Audio speakers.
Will let you know what happens, but it might take me till end of this week to test it. I'm still working on the wall mounting of the speakers. (By the way Shrek, I hope you can avoid using text speak because it is difficult to read. Thanks
)
Update (May 10): set up was a success. I was able to replace the speakers of HT-Z220 HTiB despite being permanently connected to the cables, and despite the proprietary connectors at the back of the head unit (DVD player). Details here:
