Will Logitech Z906 speakers work with my Denon AVR-X2700H AV Receiver?

I just ordered this Logitech Z906 Speaker System planning to use it with the new Denon AV receiver I got for Christmas. Someone just told me I couldn't use this speaker system with an AV receiver. If this is true, I won't even open the box. I wanted a surround speaker system to use with my Aurora R7 and the Denon AVR-X2700H 8K Receiver. I didn't see anything in the literature that said it couldn't be used with an AV receiver?? Please help

 

Thanks,

You can connect and use the Logitech Z906 Speaker System directly with the Aurora-R7. The Logitech Z906 Speaker System is already amplified by its built-in one.

The speakers for a Denon AVR-X2700H Audio-Video-Receiver are conventional ones like for a home-theater. They are usually around 4-8 Ohms and not usually pre-amplified (except for the Sub-Woofer).  I use Polk-Audio and JBL ones here. I've heard Klipsch are good also.

A proper entry-level set of 5.1 speakers for a Denon AVR-X2700H AVR, would be like:

- Fronts: A pair of tower and/or bookshelf speakers
- Center Channel Speaker
- Surrounds: A second pair of (usually smaller style) speakers
- A Sub-Woofer

For 7.1, you add another pair of (usually smaller style) speakers for the Back channel. For 6.1 the Back-channel can just be a single speaker.

You don't need the Denon amplifier as this system is self powered and a standalone solution.
