My goodmans x-pro 6160 hi-fi system broke recently due to me playing loud music for a long period of time and the cooler at the back overheated. When I plug it in now and turn it on it switches off automatically and says protect. I highly suspect the speakers are fine and it just the main unit that is broken. It is about 4 and half years old.
The only use I had for it was using the AUX In from my computer so I would like to keep my speakers but I dont know how to power them or connect them to my computer. I am an electronics newbie btw but my father has a basic knowledge and he said he can help me out with wiring/connecting everything if there is a solution to this.
There is a cable coming from each speaker that splits into two near the end and goes into positive and negative terminals on the back of the hi-fi, these are able to be removed easily.
If you want to know some of the specs I just found on the back of the manual that might be of use to you.
Amplifier:
Output Power : 160 W per channel, min. RMS, driven into 6Ω at 1kHz, with no more than 10% total harmonic distortion.
Input sensitivity/impedance (1kHz)
AUX IN: 400mV/50 kΩ
