Amplifier Tuner

Questions about home stereo components: What’s the difference between an amplifier and a receiver?
I want to hook up a cd player and a tape deck, and I have both an “integrated Stereo Amp” and a tv/fm/am Stereo Receiver. Should I pick one of those to run the components through or what? I’m wondering cuz they both have the same inputs(except for the cable jacks, which I won’t use) and speaker outs, but the amplifier has an input for a tuner.
You have answered your own question without even knowing it!! The receiver has a ‘Tuner’ in it, ie:am/fm/tv and the amp has an ‘input’ for the tuner!! Generally the Amp has better spec’s as far as power and s/n ratio(signal to noise ratio) but not always!! The reason it’s called an ‘Integrated Stereo Amp’ is because the pre-amp and the main amp (or output amp) are combined in a single unit. Expensive high-end stereo equipment have the pre-amp as a separate unit from the output amp because of different power requirements and RF interference problems….amongst other little things………..sooooo my questions to you would have to first be, what brands are the components? How big or small are your speakers? and what is your listening environment like? The answer to those and maybe a few more questions would be helpful in answering your question more thoroughly!! Anyway, I hope this helped you and feel free to answer the other questions and I’ll try to help you make the best choice!!!
