I have a pair of JBL ES 10 (passive speaker) not it use, is it possible to connect in this amplifier and get a good sound quality?

it is a great little unit for kitchen music or an adult party easy listening

Yeah it's a great little unit. Sound quality is good not fantastic but considering money you can't go wrong. I have mine connected to Wharfdale Diamond 9.1 speakers and they go loud enough to easily fill a medium size room.

I use mine to power a pair of Bose outdoor speakers on my patio. I think that they have good sound & plenty of volume. I use my ipod as the source of music with Bluetooth. The remote has various settings for various types of music i.e. rock & roll, R & B, jazz etc. which I find seems to help the sound. Hope you find this somewhat helpful. I needed a small Bluetooth capable amp for my patio speakers and I wouldn't trade this one.

Thats like asking MaryAnn or Ginger. I am using a Sony HiRes Amp and they sound fantastic. Any good quality piece of kit will let these great speakers sound good. It's a choice of your taste and wallet.

No. The speakers have no amplification. You'd need to plug your iPad into an amplifier or receiver, and then connect the speakers to the amplifier or receiver.

These are passive speakers. They do not have a built in amplifier. You will need a outside amplifier. I am using an older pioneer stereo amplifier to power the speakers.

yes if you use an active second speaker. You can not add a passive speaker to its internal amp.

Personally I have klipsch. Can't speak for JBL. Great digital amp. Had it for 3 months and love it.

I think you want amplified speakers to work with your iPad. That is, the kind that have batteries, or plug into a wall outlet. These speakers do not have a power source. They work well with a traditional stereo receiver/amplifier, but probably not with a small electronic device.Also, I think there would be a problem with the cabling.

If you are asking this question in relation to these speakers than no. You have to have a receiver/amplifier to use these speakers. Also I am not sure what the reviewer below me had a problem with. I have owned the entire JBL Studio L lineup including the JBL L820's, and they have performed flawlessly for going on four years now. Excellent speakers!!

You will need to run the speakers using an external amplifier. I use an AudioSource Amp 100 and it sounds good.

First, it will not be stereo sound, just a mono signal split into two channels. Second, you'll need a 3.5mm to 1/4" converter (http://www.amazon.com/Hosa-GPM-103-3-5mm-TRS-Adaptor/dp/B000068O3T/ref=sr_1_sc_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1402407537&sr=8-3-spell&keywords=1%2F4%22+tp+3.5mm+converter) Thirdly: the jack on your stereo needs to be a "line in". Be careful not to turn up too loud or you'll blow your speakers. Best to buy a small 10w practice amp.

you would need to match ohms/watts; also if you will send different than bass signal - this little bastard will work like extremely bad quality speaker... also turning up the voice will be sending adequate signal so complete silence or overdriving will suck...

as long as you have an amplifier you can pair any passive speaker with compatible resistance ie does the amp support 2 ohm, 4 ohm, 8 ohm etc. but these speakers are best left to create a mini sound stage in a moderately sized room.

There r a couple of ways to connect external speakers. There should b an audio output which use RCA jasks r a headphone output which u would need a Y jack wire. Your speakers may have to b self powered r u'd have to have a external amp and speakers. Need more info feel free to reach out.

Go with a JBL 10- good deep base, because these speakers have really good highs and ok mids will make up a lot of the base

Not at all. Do you have another amp to test the output on your source? The amp gets uncomfortably loud at just half volume with my Klipsch RM-15's. I've used it with far less efficient speakers and still it got very loud!Check your source...

Not by itself. This is a passive speaker, it is not ampified. Preamps out are made to connect to an amplifier (such as Boss AR1500M ARMOR 1,500-Watt Mono Mosfet Amplifier ), which in turn would be connected to the speaker(s)

I'd stick with the same. Some amplifiers can operate "unsafely" I.e. overheating or crappy sound, if they can't produce the right impedance per whatever ohm each speaker has. I'd start from ground up if you're wanting bigger better sound
