BR 900 CD

Bought a Boss 900CD - seemed like a great idea but now I see there's a LOT MORE TO IT than meets the eye.

First question - what is the best output option, through

A) stereo amplifier and some nice speakers  or

B) through a set of powered speakers like Behringers or similar

I did try a 5.1 Pioneer theatre surround system but there's some signal incompatability and it sound like do-do.

 Then I bought an old Marantz stereo (1985 PM 950) at a yard sale but that's now died on me.

Bought a Samson S 62 6 channel Amplifier/mixer at a pawn store but it wouldn't even fire up - took it back.. 

As you see I'm having problems.

Your advice most appreciated, thanks.
