this is going to be a dumb sounding question to some...
but here we go.. I moved into a unit about 2 months ago, and the landlord "kindly" (grumble, curse, swear under breath) left behind a wealth of stuff, aka crap, including a 6.1 channel marantz receiver with inbuilt amp. off this he has 5 speakers, essentially a 5.1 setup.
now, my family is coming and going, and my young son is a typical terrible twos, and i fear for the safety of both him and the stupid, underpowered, essentially useless surround speakers.
now, we're getting to the question... will i fry the amp if i pull out the surround speakers and chuck them under the bed with the rest of the landlords stuff? i know with the old, simple, useable, enjoyable.... 2 channel/stereo systems it was a big no no to do this, but i have no idea of what it will do to this sort of system.
any advice here? i'm tempted to chuck the whole ruddy thing as it's a pain, but it does work well as a receiver for TV, DVD and media player.
