    surge protector question

    Look at the back of each unit, there should be the rated AMPS, add them up and the total shoul be 10 Amps allowing a margine of 2 amps to be on the safe side. It looks to me as if that surge protector strip you are using is not good enough for the equipment you have, and adding another cheap...

    SONY D550Z receiver problem

    Layman, HT receivers are internally complex eventhough some have plug in modules, the majority of them have quite of few wires soldered onto terminals and unless you have the proper soldering equipment it will be not easy to replace. In my opinion you can forget about fixing your own receiver...

    Receiver as preamp. Hook-up???

    Gary, I think, it would have been more helpful to us in order to help you better, if you would have included in your thread, brands and model numbers of your HT equipment. I personally don't think is a workable idea to add an amp to your system to gain additional punch to your speakers...
