Do I need to have a separate amplifier for this cd player?

Yes, it has right and left channel outputs to connect to tha Aux. input of a stereo system. I use mine to play CDs through the sound system at our church and it works great.

Yes, this is just a CD deck with pre-amp. You must plug it into an amplifier.
2073783
Yes you need some kind of receiver am/fm stereo or anything you can plug white and red audio input cables into

I have mine hooked up to a 20 year old boom box that has excellent speakers. I am very pleased with this cd player. Hope this answers your question. :)
2073785
Yes you do--it is a source component. You can listen to it with headphones without an amplifier, but it will definitely not power any speakers as it only has line voltage.
2073786
Yes. You must have an amplifier. My TEAC CD-P1260 had problems. Maybe you will get a good one. My previous TEACs have been OK.
2073787
Yes you do. It s a component and needs to be connected to a tuner/amplifier and then to speakers. It can be used as a stand alone unit if you use only earphones to listen to it. It has separate controls just for this funtion.

You do need an amp to use speakers, but it also has a headphone jack with volume control, tho I haven't used it.

No, you'll need an amplifier of some kind. I purchased a small Pyle amp from Amazon to run mine.

Hi MaddieLike most cd players, this unit has to plug into a receiver with it's own amplification (what your a.m./f.m./cd unit probably serves as) or a separate amp. If your receiver has a place for another accessory on the back with two phono plug inputs, such as for a turntable or it might just say input, then you can plug this changer into those and then there should be a corresponding setting on the front buttons that will switch the input to where you plugged it in on the back of the receiver unit. In this case, the output to the speakers will still be limited to the amplification of your receiver, so it won't affect the speakers.

Yes use an auxiliary cord that plugs into the headphone jack of the CD player then the other end plugs into the auxiliary input that is located under the middle compartment on the front of the unit. The auxiliary cord has a headphone jack on each end. (Aux cord)

No. This is a preamp level device, you need an amplifier for connection to speakers.

I think know you have an RCA left and right channel out on your CD player. I have an high end Audioquest RCA left right with male mini jack. I use it with my Astell and Kern AK 120 player into any preamp so any decent RCA left right to mini cable will work. http://www.amazon.com/s/?ie=UTF8&keywords;=mini-jack+to+rca+cable

No you do not need an amplifier. The unit is a complete sound system. It sounds great!

This is a CD player only. It would need to be connected to an amplifier to drive speakers.

Yes, it does have an output that could be used for a CD player, in fact two outputs. The amp volume control is very limited. I would not recommend this product.

Only if your CD has a built in amplifier. There has to be an amplifier between the CD and the Pyle unit.

There's no Phono input, so that implies you need a separate pre-amp, though who knows, maybe it does have sensitive enough input.The manual is almost impossible to comprehend, and unit's routing is really confusing, keep that in mind.

I got one with mine. But I discovered after the fact if you bought the "Direct Connect Cord" you didn't have to. So with that being said, I can't give an opinion on the quality without the amplifier and using the direct connect cord.

I don´t believe that you need an amplifier since has all the possibilities to be install to the head unit directly.

you will need a preamp or a reciever with preamp outputs...its a nice unit for the money, it does have a power gain control on the back of the unit if you are pairing it with another amp..good luck

If I understand what you are trying to do, it cannot be done with stand alone connections. The sound bar only allows for two types of physical inputs; standard headphone jack and Optical (Toslink). You will need a converter from RCA to optical Toslink to connect your CD player. There are a few options to choose from, here is one example: Panlong Analog to Digital Optical Coaxial Audio Converter Adapter with 3.5mm & RCA InputsHope that helps, seems like the way to go if you already own this sound bar.
