What is an amplifier? I want to connect PYLE speakers to a portable $15 cd with ac/dc jack. Can I find an amplifier for the CD? Sorry I'm a novice

In short, no, these speakers will not work with a portable CD player. An amplifier can be had cheaply (about $20), though. Leipath 2020a amp may be what you need.

These speakers require a power source such as an amplifier. I ended up buying a 3 speaker set from Radio Shack that plugged into the head phone jack on sale for $20 bucks. Sounds and works great. I would suggest something like The bullet which I use for my laptop and phone when I use them for music.

I concur with the others on this question. You do need an amplifier for these speakers.

you would just use a set rca analog cables to hook it up to your preamp, but you have 2 volume controls. how about just hooking up your CD player via the analog outputs to this headphone amp if this is your source of music or if you have another DAC just hook it up the same way and bypass your preamp.... I had a preamp with no headphone jack so I did the same for awhile then I just use the headphone with my CDP. though if you try to hook up a turn table phono amp to headphone amps there always seem to pick up a hum or some noise the you could hear.

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

If I were you I would look for a good pair of PC speakers. Technically it is possible using an amp and converter cables. If you are using the computer as part of a music system setup then it maybe worth going this route.

This amp uses line level input which is 1.7Vpp nominal. The same signal that your home stereo CD player would output(as an example. You cannot connect the input of this amp to the speaker terminals of your device. The amp would be damaged from the power level out put of the speaker terminals. If you must use the speaker of your existing system to power this amp you must get a SPEAKER LEVEL-ATTENUATOR/MATCHING device. This will convert the 8ohm speaker impedance to 10K ohms and the provide limiting so that the output would not exceed 2vpp. You can et such devices on Amazon and they are not expensive.

I would like to include this Pyle PWMA3003T with other audio equipment such as a 20 band Equalizer and a 4000 watts power Amp. Ok to make my question simpler what could add to increase my music power without catastrophic failure.

You need to buy a speaker system. You will not need an amplifier if you get a powered speaker.

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

The A/D cable does not work in both directions - the signal flow must be *from* the audio end *to* the USB end. That means you can not play out through your USB jack using this cable.You will need a D/A box to play out from your USB port to your speakers, and probably an amp as well (unless your speakers are powered). You can find these little guys branded as external USB sound cards, typically for under $50. Some of the nicer ones have gain and processing controls, but most will have an 1/8" TRS jack rather than RCA or full size phono jacks. When you go looking for a solution, remember to consider all the connections you'll have to make as well as power considerations.

This device is not an amplifier. The Pyle Speaker selector allows you to manage volume of speakers in other rooms (example). This speaker volume control has no power cord.

Hi Scott...You don't need an amp, I hooked mine up without one.....take care.....Andy

These speakers require a seperate amplifier to function. This can be anything from a $5000 surround sound amp down to a simple stereo amplifier. I'm using this one with mine: Pyle - Mini 2x75W Stereo Power Amplifier - PCA3. It comes at a very reasonable price (on Amazon)It's more than adequate for a pair of these speakers and produces some great sound. If you can run a stereo signal from your TV to the amplifier (RCA cables) this setup could work for you.My setup is much more elaborate than a cable from the TV to the amp, but either should work.

No, because there would be no amplifier. It's like trying to plug a music player into a PA speaker, there would be nothing to amplify the sound.

one for your amp if you wanna run one to it but not nessary.and one for your cd player that's needed to capture the output from the sound.if you don't have a amp that you don't wanna run to it.just a set will be fine.just run it from your cd player and into the amplified eq.it sounds pretty good

The amplifier is the headset or speaker you plug into the unit's output connector. As far as output amplification, check the specs. in the write up for the product. I do not know that value.
