No, because in a pure amplifier the radio part is always missing.

Do you connect speakers to receiver or amplifier?

Depends on what your definition of "receiver" is, but most of the time - to the amplifier. Consider: if the receiver is some form of a device that receives some signal, and then decodes it to audio, then the receiver will hook into the amplifier, which in turn will drive the speakers (so the speakers go to the amplifier) if, on the other hand, the receiver is a part of a wireless connection between the amplifier and speaker, then it really serves the role of a cable, so in essence you're again connecting the speakers to an amplifier (only using the receiver as an intermediary) You would have to specify your case.

Can you hook up an amplifier for a car to a AV receiver for a home theatre system?

It depends on the specific models of each, but typically, Yes. Of course you will need a 12VDC power supply for the amplifier, though. You will also need a AV receiver with a preamp output. You cannot run speaker level outputs into the input of an amplifier.


Best match of amplifier with speakers?

I always try to match an amplifier or receiver that is rated within the following range: from .8 times to 1.5 times the RMS rating of the speakers. The impedance of the speakers should not be rated below 5 ohms unless the amplifier/receiver is conservatively rated as 4 ohm stable.
