Like JE Shaw said, no. The jacks are proprietary connections made for this Sharp unit, and have only one port per speaker. The wires are also rather short, so if you mean to space them further than 3-4 feet from the unit, it might not be the best setup for you since connections cannot be extended beyond factory specification. That being said, it's still a very good multipurpose mini system for the price. I use mine as a sound bar for the TVDVD movies by using the AUX input port on the left lower front panel as well as playing music.

Actually you cannot add extra speakers. The only way to do it will change the impedance of the speakers making it likely you'll ruin the transformer in the unit. There are no extra speaker jacks on the unit. There are no jacks on the speakers, the speaker wires are permanently installed. It is designed for one set of speakers. This is a very nice unit for the price. It's one of the few shelf systems left that can accommodate multiple CD's.

Yeah you can, but the speakers sound great, so why would you want to? Add a subwoofer if you really want to beef up the sound. If you are really worried about the speakers, you may want a bigger, more powerful system. I still love this system, a couple of months later. Wouldn't hesitate to buyit again,Dan

No. Has insert jack for only the two speakers that are supplied with the unit.

There is a headphone jack port that you can use to hook up to the sound system. Not sure how well it would work though. I have not tried that myself. I usually hook it up to my peavy keyboard amp.

You definitely can hook them up but if you're after quality stereo sound this isn't the amp you want since it has a mono output. You might want to read about hooking speakers up in series and parallel to get the desired impedance.

There is ports for speakers but I think you may want to step up to the next model because you may want a little more power for the sound and thump you want. Not putting that amp down, its good just not strong enough.

No. The only jack on the unit is for another device (like a CD player) to be ran thru the speaker.

You need an amp/receiver with speakers.....or you can use just headphones with the unit

There is a line in jack on one side, but no line out (headphone) jack. This is generally the case for most external speakers.

No-but the wires to the existing speakers aren't very long, so not many options for set-up. Bought it for the kitchen counter and it takes up too much room. Happy with it otherwise.

The speakers are not included -- you will have to acquire them separately. I use Polk Audio bookshelf speakers that work terrifically with this unit.

Brian,I'm sorry no one replied to your question. I only just got this system myself last night. You could not just plug your speakers in, because the system uses a proprietary method of plugging the speaker wires into small jacks on the back very similar to telephone jacks. You could splice the open end of the speaker cables to your existing cables, though! Not an optimal choice, I know, but a choice, nonetheless.Good luck!

the unit hooks up to the bose radio unit which has speakers built in. Also, some units are nt compatable. Check with Bose for details

No the jacks are in parallel. Use one as an input the other to connect another speaker.
