So i have an almost 10 years old Panasonic home theater system. the model is SC-HT895
Here is the link to the manual: https://www.manualslib.com/manual/118583/Panasonic-Sc-Ht895.html?page=1#manual

Its a total 850watts RMS home theater system with 2 front speakers, 2 surround speakers, 1 center and 1 subwoofer
see speakers specs here: https://www.manualslib.com/manual/118583/Panasonic-Sc-Ht895.html?page=42#manual

the problem is that my centre console the player which controls everything has gone faulty and hence i cannot use the speakers..
so can i buy any other brand low price amplifier/player with which i can connect my all 6 speakers?

pls advice

Your system is a Home-theater-in-a-box (HTiB) which use proprietary standards so it will be extremely difficult to plug-n-play speakers to an off the shelf processor/amplifier:
- The front and surround speakers have an impedance of 3ohms which is usually not supported by proper home theater receivers.
- The sub is passive - so you'll need an amp to power it.

The incompatibility of HTiB systems with proper home theater standards means your best bet would be to try to find a similar panasonic center console to continue to use your existing speakers.
