Isthere any new 5.1 channel amplifier with Dolby and dts without speakers.

Hi I am Rupesh from India and one of my friend gifted me used 10 years Sony 5.1 channel home theatre system which has 850 watts and 5 speakers for center, surround and front and one sub woofer.

All speakers are working fine except the amplifier which reads music files from usb or aux and output the sound to speakers is not working.

Now my requirement is I want a new amplifier which has nice dac, Dolby Atmos, dts or dtsx without any speakers.

I searched for Sony 5.1 channel home theatre system and it costs more amount and even they sell everything I mean amplifier, speakers etc.,.

But I don't want speakers as I already have and so I asked them whether they can give only amplifier without any speakers but they replied no you must buy everything. I think Sony is not selling amplifier separately.

So I searched for local companies other than Sony who sells amplifiers and found a lot which are compatible with Sony home theatre system speakers.

I think that those local company amplifiers doesn't have technologies such as Dolby Atmos, dts or dtsx etc.,.

One of the company who sells amplifiers in my country is Ahuja which is more popular. It sells various devices related to audio. It's home page is as below

https://m.ahujaradios.com/

As Ahuja is selling various devices like mixer amplifiers, power amplifiers, mixers, splitters etc.,. I can't select which is suitable for me.

I found other two products which are amplifiers from tech lobby company which are compatible for my speakers.

https://www.amazon.in/Tech-Lobby%C2%AE-Surround-Amplifier-Function-Bluetooth/dp/B0CD2KCZD8

https://www.amazon.in/Tech-Lobby-Updated-Surround-Amplifier-Bluetooth/dp/B0CGM3K8VZ

Kindly try to suggest a 5.1 channel amplifier which has nice dac, Dolby Atmos, dts or dtsx without any speakers. The amplifier must provide hifi sound.

If possible try to suggest amplifier from well known companies such as Sony, Phillips, Lg, onkyo etc., but at less cost. If not possible try to suggest from Ahuja or tech lobby etc.,.

Regards,
Rupesh.

Here is the least expensive example of what you need:
https://www.amazon.in/Denon-AVR-X250BT-Ultra-Receiver-Bluetooth/dp/B07DRP4N1P/

Unfortunately, it cost significantly more than the other items you linked. You may be able to find something equivalent on the used market for much less. Have you looked for a used replacement for the Sony unit you were gifted?

Note that the basic AV receiver above does not support Atmos which requires a minimum of two height channels. It sounds like you do not have these additional speakers:
https://www.dolby.com/about/support/guide/speaker-setup-guides/5.1.2-overhead-speaker-setup-guide

The subwoofer from the old Sony system will not work with a modern AV receiver if it depends on the receiver for power. You can determine this by checking if the subwoofer plugs into wall power. If it does not, then it will not work without purchasing an additional amplifier:

At present I will buy low end av receiver and in future I will buy hi tech receiver or home theatre system.

If I can't get Dolby Atmos, dts or dtsx then I will drop them.

Can you try to explain the meanings of the following which are present in Ahuja website.


POWER AMPLIFIERS

    Dual Channel Power Amplifiers
    2 Zone PA Power Amplifiers
    High Wattage PA Power Amplifiers
    DJ & PA Power Amplifiers
    Installation PA Power Amplifiers
    Mobile PA Power Amplifiers


MIXER AMPLIFIERS

    High Wattage PA Mixer Amplifiers
    MEDIUM WATTAGE PA MIXER AMPLIFIERS
    LOW WATTAGE PA MIXER AMPLIFIERS
    2 ZONE PA MIXER AMPLIFIERS
    Mobile PA Mixer Amplifiers
    Installation PA Mixer Amplifiers


Mixers

    PA Audio Mixing Consoles - Stereo
    PA Audio Mixers
    PA Effect Processors
    DJ Mixers

I think that I can get a basic receiver or amplifier from Ahuja but I must carefully select the proper product as listed in their website.

Hi actually the problem in my amplifier is it is not throwing sound to front speakers.


I mean I can't get sound from only front speakers but I am able to get sound from surround or back speakers, woofer etc.,.


Except I am not getting sound from front speakers everything is working fine.


Can I add any circuit board or any other component to the motherboard of my present Sony home theatre system amplifier so that I can get sound from all the speakers.


This is a common problem in Sony home theatre systems.

Rupesh.

Sony DAV-DZ510
That unit does not provide any option to connect to an external amplifier. If not already being used for connection to your TV, however, it is possible that the "HDMI-ARC Out" could connect to an external soundbar/subwoofer which would take the place of the current speakers.

Update: Here's a device that might work if you can find an equivalent in India:
Pyle Bluetooth Hybrid Home Amplifier - 6-Channel 2000W Home Audio Rack Mount Stereo Power Amplifier Receiver w/ Radio, USB/AUX/RCA/Mic, Optical/Coaxial, AC-3, DVD Inputs, Dual 10 Band EQ https://a.co/d/6m6OHAz

Hi if you examine the output ports present at the backside of my Sony home theatre system you can see square holes which are used to insert speaker wire.

For the Pyle amplifier you specified and other similar products there are no square holes at the backside of amplifier but instead there are circle holes.

As there are no square holes in new Pyle amplifier I think that I can't connect my present speakers.

At present in my home I have LG dvd player which has 5.1 channel output but as explained before there are no square holes at the backside of dvd player but instead there are circle holes.

Kindly try to suggest how to connect Sony home theatre speakers to other dvd player or amplifier which has circle holes.

As you suggested may I know how to connect speakers through hdmi output.

I am new to amplifiers, home theatre system, speakers etc.,. Please try to suggest any link which explains all in detail.
Regards,
Rupesh.

Those "square" plugs at the end of your speaker wires are Sony proprietary and meant to make it easy to plug them into the main unit. If you remove the plastic plugs, the bare wires can connect to any standard amplifier.

YouTube video: https://youtu.be/-ddnqr3o3kM

As for the "round holes", you need to look up "5-way binding posts" and understand how they work.  They will accept any bare wire.

I don't think your LG DVD player has any use with this Sony.
