What is the power sent through the separate external speaker jacks? Do I need a seperate amp?

I do not need a separate amplifier, but I also am not one for loud music. I enjoy my system just as it is, and plan to use it for a long time.

This should work; Basically just wiring two speakers in parallel, such that the resistance from the amp's viewpoint is halved. Each speaker will receive half the wattage.

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

It's an FM radio transmitter, so if you want to plug it into the pc headphone jack and pick it up over your stereo radio or run powered speakers from the receiver that comes with it, yes. It can not power external un-amped speakers.

doubtful that you'll need an amp unless your receiver is literally a POS. I would suggest you buy a higher grade speaker wire (I have 16 gauge on mine) and that you bi-wire them as well.

Biamping is sending power separately to the Woofers and Tweeters for instance.....I wouldn't really recommend this on this type of system as oppossed to a very high end system(where you could actually TRI-AMP IT with the proper High End Speakers) but that is a WHOLE other ballgame in Audio and very expensive.....If you add a major powerful Power Amp to great speakers that's all you should need(without Bi-Amping to different parts of the same speaker)...but it will be moot if your speakers aren't good enough or can't handle it....

its not "stand-alone." This is a passive mixer, or un-powered. You need an AMP to power large speakers etc...

use a male to male mini stereo plug and cord. there is a jack in back of the amp, if I understand your set up. All though if you are already connected to working speakers you don't need them amp.

It depends. Do you plan to just connect speakers to this unit? If so, you only need the connect amp. If you're hooking it up to a stereo, surroundsound system, or another type of amplifier, you only need the connect. You probably don't need both.

I believe that is correct. I am using the mini amp to power exterior speakers.

Only one set of stereo outs. If running a mixer/out front speakers and monitors get two. That way one power amp is for the subs/speakers and the other amp is for monitors. That my experience with a few gigs under my belt. Plus it lets you regulate more power to monitors and less to speakers and vice versa.

No. It does not require a separate power supply. Just set it up and plug it into the wall and and a preamp with a phono input.

the output is that of a tuner so if your speakers have a built in amp you should be ok, if not your out of luck or you will have to have a seperate amp

There is no internal power amp. The pre-amps are very good but you need a power amp for passive speakers. I am using 4 Mackie active speakers and they work great with this board.

No you will need a separate amp. I bought an inexpensive Pioneer that pushes 150 watts per channel and these speakers sound true and rich.

These speakers require an amplifier, for instance a home theater receiver. It needs more power than, say, a headphone jack.

Get a seperate amp. If my stock one was a 2/10, after speakers and a head unit id rate it a 4/10. But the amp jumped it to 8.5/10. AMP is a HUGE difference
