Dinosaur here: use standard headphones with a cassette &amp; a CD Walkman; want a speaker. Will this do it? Will a 2.1 Amp USB wall charger work?

Yes it will work anything with a standard audio headphone jack or a micro USB. I charge mine on the computer. But it probably can be charged using a wall char get.

Hello there, As far as I know, you have to use headphones or speakers. You can get a headphone adapter (1/8 inch to 1/4 inch) for a couple bucks at almost any electronic store.

The output is the typical headphone connector, (2.5mm, 1/8"). If you have external speakers with that connector it will work like any other device. The power output is limited, so if the speaker is powered it will make a good sound. You can't beat the price.

Yes, If the CD player has the standard headphone jack 3.5 mm (approx. 1&#8260;8 inch) it should work fine and support stereo sound.

This would probably work although it's not very durable, so keep that in mind. There is a headphone jack connection and also a place for batteries so you don't need to use the USB connection.

No, it will not, it requires a 3.5mm in device you are using to amplify sound, most MP3 player have this, most cell phones do not, normally this type of plug will be only for audio signal, cradle shown is just a cradle, no charger. USB cord is for power to the amp speaker, nothing else.

There is a headphone jack and an AV output using 2 standard RCA plugs (red and white). The impedance is not given so I am not sure if there is enough output to drive speakers. It would work with a pair of amplified computer speakers or through a small amplifier of course.

There are two cables that come with it. One a very short and is attached to the speaker. It's basically meant just for plugging it in while it's sitting directly next to the source. The other one is longer, maybe 12 inches or so and is used for charging as well as audio use. I would think that a quick trip down to radio shack would set you up with everything you need. The connection you would need to link up to is a simple headphone jack. The charging portion is done via USB which comes off if the same (longer) cable. As long as you have some place to plug in the USB for changing I don't see any reason you couldn't put together a rig that would allow you to use the speaker 4 feet away. Keep in mind, you can daisy chain these speakers together by plugging one into the other and then one into the source. Maybe just get a few and chain them together? Either way, hope this helped.

No Joy, you don't HAVE to buy speakers for this.. but if you want to listen to the audio output you'll either need headphones or speakers + speaker cable + an amplifier.If you only want to 'rip' CDs to USB devices, you don't need either but you won't hear anything.

I am not sure about this. I always assumed that it used the phono port for the line out and the usb was only for power. I bet that it is only for power, but maybe I might try the usb as the audio line out and update my answer. I doubt it will work though.

The A/D cable does not work in both directions - the signal flow must be *from* the audio end *to* the USB end. That means you can not play out through your USB jack using this cable.You will need a D/A box to play out from your USB port to your speakers, and probably an amp as well (unless your speakers are powered). You can find these little guys branded as external USB sound cards, typically for under $50. Some of the nicer ones have gain and processing controls, but most will have an 1/8" TRS jack rather than RCA or full size phono jacks. When you go looking for a solution, remember to consider all the connections you'll have to make as well as power considerations.

Haven't tried that so not totally sure. If the headphone amp puts out a standard audio signal, it should work fine. My A and B are connected to my phone and my computer with the single output connected to speakers.

I'd never given any thought to this until receiving your question. The unit only has a socket for the mini-plug as is used for headphones. I just tried plugging in a desktop speaker from a "all in one" type unit (w/radio/cassette/CD) and it played just fine - BUT keep in mind that only one speaker can be played thru it, and even if you use a "Y" adaptor it'll still come out mono. So the short answer is Yes, with limitations.

It just so happens that I have two of these and a Y-jack for headphones, so I tried it. The requirement would be that you have a splitter (Y-jack) plus two USB ports available for two speakers. It did work, and of course was louder than just the one, but wasn't true stereo. I previously had a Y-jack that split stereo to mono, but I'm not sure where it is. If I find it I'll post the results here. Bottom line is you can't daisy-chain these, but with a splitter or even mixer (why?) you can make it work.

You're going to need to buy something like this http://www.amazon.com/Manhattan-inches-Stereo-Splitter-3-5mm-Adapter/dp/B0009JFF7A/ref=sr_1_14?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1399786504&sr=1-14&keywords=rca+to+3.5mm Then you can plug in headphones or compatible speakeres. It's what I'd did and it works pretty well

No. USB is for charging purposes only (2.1 amps). More info: http://m.tdkperformance.com/en-us/Home-Audio/Boomboxes/Wireless-Sound-Cube/

No, you would get a cable that takes the small headphone plug and has a stereo rca out. I got one for my daughter so she can run an integrated amp. I think we bought an Audioquest cable for about $35 that works very well.
