Q: QuestionI have Bose 791 ceiling speakers and want to ask if I require amplifier to use them for my TV? If I do require amplifier then what should be capacity of amplifier ?

Asked 4 years ago by Krunal.

• A:Answer Hello Krunal, the 791 speakers are compatible with amplifiers or receivers rated 10-100W per channel/rated 4 to 8 ohms - this isn't something that a TV normally outputs as (it needs positive and negative bare wire connections), so the audio is output from a TV to a receiver normally, that is then connected via the bare wires to the 791 speakers.

Q: QuestionHow are they powered

Asked 7 years ago by Buttons.

• A:Answer Hi Buttons. Thanks for the question. The Virtually Invisible 791 In-Ceiling Speakers II are non-powered speakers. They will need to be connected to a receiver/amplifier that provides 10-100 W per channel, 4-8 ohms. Our SoundTouch SA-5 Amplifier is always an option! We hope this helps!

Q: QuestionWhen installing the speakers in the ceiling, is it okay if the speaker is surrounded and comes in contact with the attic insulation? Does a speaker box need to be installed in the attic?

Asked 11 months ago by Thomas.

• A:Answer Hi Thomas, thanks for the question! While there are several ways to ensure your speakers/audio cables won't come into contact at all with any materials in your attic, it's ultimately down to personal preference as to whether you choose to use e.g. a speaker box.
