Use with a CD player? Will this work with my CD player without an amp?

Yes, I own this unit and it will work with a cd player provided you are using the correct rca inputs.

You'll need at least another cable 1/4 (same size that you are already using for the guitar) and if you want to use it, there is an output to headphone too that you could use with no amp....

No amp required, but I use it with a small portable headphone DAC/Amp when I connect tony laptop and they sound amazing. I also use with no amp attached to iPhone and the sound is fuller than my Shure IEMs

Hi Anne, You do need a amp., I use a little Peavey Solo and it works just fine. Hope this helps, Mike

I have mine between my separate preamp and amp. Not knowing your equipment, I would suggest putting it on a tape monitor if you have one. Otherwise, I would put it between the CD player and the receiver. You just need RCA cables. It'll take 1/4" unbalanced cables too. Let me know if you need more help or more about what it ACTUALLY does.

Not directly. A component-style CD player like this needs to be connected to an amplifier or receiver. The amplifier or receiver (a receiver is an AM/FM tuner with an amplifier built-in) provides the power for the speakers.

not sure why you would need to. it has a built in CD player... if your CD player has a USB connector you could possibly use that.

Yes, this is just a CD deck with pre-amp. You must plug it into an amplifier.

This particular CD player does require you to have an amplifier to connect to. The amplifier will control the volume and your speakers are also connected to the amp. If you procure an amp, you can also connect other devices such as DVD player, etc. and play them through your amp. Hope this helps.

Yes, because of the USB capabilities, I believe this model has a pre-amp already installed in it. Some receivers have a pre-amp installed, if there is a "phono" input. Mine does not and I use the "CD" input. I haven't tried it, but I would assume you could connect the turntable directly to speakers and it would be fine.

probably - it's just an inline amp to pump up the volume a little bit. It has worked with every portable music player I've plugged in to it.

Mine's connected to an amp and the amp is connected to the speakers. As rjcolgan said, you choose the receiver or amp and the speakers you wish to use. Fantastic CD player by the way - I've had mine for about five years with not a bit of difficulty and great sound fidelity.

Yes you will still need an amp. I have 100 watts on mine and it sounds great, very punchy.

It won't work without an amplifier. I have this same amp and speakers, this will work. Your need some speaker wire too. Pyle Home PCAU46A 2 x 120 Watts Mini Power Amplifier with LED Display

I do not use it with an amp. I use it with a Vizio sound bar. It sounds great.
