Does this keyboard have speakers or do you need to purchase separate speakers?

Hey Joel! This keyboard does not have speakers. It's powered by your computer - i.e. plug it into your PC or Mac (I have a Mac) and you can hear it thru your computer's speakers. Cheers!

it has no speakers... it doesn't make any sounds, or compute any sounds either. it's simply a controller... kind of like your qwerty keyboard does nothing without a computer. this does nothing without a sound processor and speakers.

It is not your typical keyboard. It is a MIDI controller so not only do you need separate speakers, but you also need software to produce audio.

It's not a keyboard, it's a midi controller. You need a PC/Mac with speakers + software to use this.

No it does not...also, just to note...this keyboard is EXTREMELY loud in terms of the noise output when typing. The keys are outrageously loud. Not recommended.

I don't use a keyboard withthis unit. I have several netbooks that I use if I need a keyboard.

I would say neither. You will not have a very loud keyboard. However since this unit is not very expensive you get what you pay for.

It does not come with a keyboard but you can buy a third party keyboard to use with it. By the way, i bought this unit and returned it in couple days. Spend your money on a Sony instead of this one.... This one is terrible, you can get Sony for the same price and work way better...

This particular one has no sounds, it's just a MIDI controller, set up to control another keyboard that you would already have.

It is two separate speakers, but there are magnets that can hold them together if you want them both on top of your computer (they both have clips on the back). If you want them separate you can pull them apart (there will be a wire that reels out and in to connect the two), so you can clip them to sides of your screen. The picture that shows red is not the one I received (not sure what's going on there). The one I received is black and definately two pieces.

Just to be clear, this is a midi controller, meaning there are no stored sounds inside the unit. There are no speakers on the unit either. It just controls your software. You plug this into a computer loaded with a software that has all of your sounds. You can transpose on the keyboard or in the software. As far as an external speaker you can run out of the computer audio Jack into an amplifier or mixer

you can use a headphone with this, any type will work. A foot pedal comes with the keyboard

No, you have to purchase the keyboard separately. Personally, after spending over a $120 on the keyboard, I am wondering why as I have seldom used it.

The keyboard is an optional item. To be purchased separately. But any Bluetooth can work. This is a cheaper option.

At the front left hand corner of the keyboard, there is a 3.5mm jack. With this, you can connect headphones or external speakers. You can also connect to an amplifier. The device has no internal speakers, so yes, you have to use an external device such as headphones or speakers to hear the output.

This keyboard is a midi controller. It has no speakers, no sounds, and no internal computer. I can best explain it by comparing it to a computer keyboard which doesn't work unless you plug it into a computer. If you plug it into a computer with speakers and download a midi program, the sound will come out of the computer speakers. Or if you have another keyboard/synthesizer/digital piano, you can plug it into one of those and play 2 keyboards at once, but the sound will still only come out of the keyboard with speakers.

It does. Not a great keyboard, mind you, so you might want to get one separately, depending on how much you actually use it.

You will need to buy speakers, if your monitor does not have them built in. This is a tower key board and mouse combo package, you will need to have a monitor to complete this, so it's usable.
