I need a CD player to broadcast a song outside to be heard by about 80 people for a zombie dance at our Ghost Walk. Is this loud enough?

I haven't tried the DK-KP80P outside but at only 22 WATS I doubt it will be loud enough for all your guests. Plus if you play it at maximum volume for too long the speakers might blow.

I doubt it! But I returned it because every time you walked by it the cds would skip, not a good radio at all (in my opinion)

I think it serves well for a small group say 30 people in a small area. I did not have chance to use it for outdoor movies; however, I used it for a Karaoke event and it worked well. However, if you turn to volume knot over 1/2, you may have some feed back on microphone. For stereo music out put, I think it works better.

The sound really carrys, i live in a 1 bdrm and we can hear it in all areas. If youre using it as background music cpuld work great. Not sure if those 40 will be talking it may not be loud enough.

Yes. It puts out a pretty descent sound. I don't use the radio because the reception is not good. I play my cds and it works well. I am pleased with it. Let me know if you have any other questions. Enjoy.

When I used this around the home, I keep it well under the 1/4 mark and that's still very loud.When I take it outside or to the beach, I play it near max (generally a little lower so the base isn't blown out) and you can clearly hear it from a far distance. I've had dance parties on the beach and it this rocks it.While it can be used inside, it's really meant for outdoors or large areas.

Hello john, this is good for some good music. It depends on your intended use really. Its not meant for parties, but background music and alone music is great. Also look at the db sensativity on your speakers. Some speakers will sound louder at same volume then others. Cheers!

Technically yes, but I wouldn't really recommend it for a CD Player. CD Player/Cassette Deck would sound incomplete without the Stereo Effect. Marshall MS-2's sound is more like mono and it won't shake up the floor but it's good enough for Bedroom Jam.

I have this, and sound wise, it was great for me. If you have other people who are in your group, who are also listening, it might not be as good for them...if they are close to you it'll be ok. I use in the city of Chicago, and it's hard to hear for others when they are across the street...traffic wise...but if they are on the same side of the street, and within 20 feet,they can hear just fine.

Depends on how large your yard and your crowd is. For a party of 10-20 guests in a small yard, this can get pretty loud at maximum volume, assuming you play pop music and not classical/jazz tunes.

Overall I think it is pretty loud and works well outside. We used it during out block party and we could hear the music even with all the other background noise of the party. Also, the bass is decent. There is a 5 band eq that allows you to adjust the sound.

Absolutely. This thing is crazy loud. I've only had it at full volume to see how hi it can go and honestly, I cant see ever needing it that loud inside any sort of normal residence at all. Outside in an open yard? Oh yeah, this would work.

Yeah. This sound machine does pretty loud. If it is near by it should do the job.

I agree with the previous responses, if you are looking for some music on your patio or deck for a BBQ or other gathering this should fit the bill just fine. If you have a half-acre or larger area and you're hoping to have a rocking dance party and don't want to hire a DJ this will not do the job.

I tested this, and the music had to be really loud (old-school jungle at 120% volume loud) for someone next to me in a quiet room to report hearing anything. This is not, importantly, because of anything like "noise cancellation" (which messes with the signals themselves) but simply good design; you will have to turn the music off before you take them off your head in a library, because they do project some sound otherwise. Also, if you live in a city in which being annoying on public transport is considered unacceptable, please send brochures

No, I would advise getting something more like a set of Peavy PA speakers. If it is outdoors, it doesn't matter even if the group is small. You will experience a lot of ambient, distracting noise. And it would be load enough to get full clarity. I hope this helps.

Most Metal fans I know like it LOUD. This speaker will not do. It does kick out some good volume but is too small a wireless speaker for that kind of output.I would recommend going into a store with your smartphone loaded with your favorite tunes, sync with it and listen for yourself. Worst Buy carries them as does Sears.
