Can you use the speakerphone base by itself?

Yes, the speaker phone on the main base can be used. Full details on the base system can be found here: http://service.us.panasonic.com/OPERMANPDF/KXTG6841-MUL.PDF#page=12

Also, it must be the A2DP headset. My Logitech speakerphone does NOT work with the base.

You have the option of silencing just the base, or just the handset, or both. You can select on your own

It makes a tolerable speakerphone. I haven't used it extensively as a speakerphone, but haven't experienced any problems with it when using the speakerphone function.

The right speaker can be used on its own. However, you need to plug the left speaker into the right speaker to get sound out of the left one. The right speaker has a port for 'charging/aux in' (mini usb port). The left speaker only has an 'audio in' (typical headphone mono/stereo jack). I have not tried plugging an audio source directly to either speaker, so I am not sure if you can use the left one with an independent audio source. The right speaker needs to be charged or have external power. The left speaker is driven by its audio input. I don't see any on/off switches on the left speaker. I looked after reading the other answers. So, I guess, the answer to your question is... The right speaker can be used independently, but the left speaker requires power/audio input to the 'audio in' jack. The left speaker does not have bluetooth or wireless capability that I can tell. I hope that helps.

sorry I didn't read the question right I don't know if the base has a speaker but the phone itself does for hands free

Both have speaker the base and the phone, so if you don't find the phone can you answer it through the base

Yes, you do need the base. However, this expensive phone system has not worked well for us. It has some sound quality issues on all three phones we purchased.

yes it can .. I looked in there manual, and they show you how to do it. I'm very satisfied with this phone. I keep it on my desk and use the speaker all the time.

yes - each handset has a "speaker" button that works just fine. I use it all the time. :)

No you can just use one if you want. On the bottom of the speaker is a switch and you set it to "mono" then connect it to your Bluetooth device.

The only way to use the stereo bluetooth to make a phone call is through the mic that is supplied with the unit. This is the only make it truly handsfree.

The speaker function is in the handset, not the base. All the base has is the seat for charging which makes it have a small footprint on the desk.

Yes, you can. 2 things I do not like about the phone, otherwise it is GREAT!. sometimes, I get told my speech is garbled. (I use it with Vonage). The speaker on the phone is fine for listening, but sucks for 2 way conversation.

Yes you can, however, when you plug in the speaker, it does turn the unit off, and you have to turn it back on and let it pair again.

Yes. This model has a speaker phone built into the base station. Plus, each handset can also function as a speaker phone independent of the base.
