What kind of/how many watts speakers do you suggest? We have a 40W amp but someone told me the speaker has to plug straight into the mixer.

I mean it has two different ports . One 3.5mm port for standard/computer speakers and an RCA port for higher quality speakers. Both work great and very good sound quality. Im pretty sure any speakers can do and if one fails , then maybe you must use adapters and your set to go :)

I have mine run 2 120w jvc speakers they do plug direct to the controller but they have their own power source. Sounds good to. I run the Hercules instinct and my Hercules rmx also. On my rmx I have to use and 3/4 to 1/4 adapter for it to work I hope this helped you.

If your speakers are powered these don't work.The 40 watt output is about 12-15 watts. This is a personal amp for just you at your computer. The 120 watt Pyle which is really about 50 watts .

My speakers are 500 Watts continuous power, and I use them for DJing. I setup my system at home and used the meter on my Amp to gauge how far to push the speakers, I added a subwoofer to take most of the base so I wouldn't have to push the speakers to hard to get more bass. My speakers also have a safety feature that won't allow them to be pushed further than they can handle! I guess it really depends on the venue that you're using them in!

It is purely a mixer with Phantom power.... You'll need an amp or self-powered speakers if using it as a live sound mixer.

Hi, make sure you have good quality cables, & try separating your mixer & your speaker power sources....You may be inducing a ground loop... -MT

The Behringer powered speaker you have is ok for the price. When you can afford it, move up to QSC K series units.To add to the good advice in both responses.....I suspect you may be using a 1/4" phone plug which may be stereo in a mono input, follow the advice in answer 2, and use decent XLR pro grade cables. Also, you may be over driving the power module in the speaker by using the wrong mixer/out - speaker/in combination.

50watt rated speakers will work just fine with this amp. Max power into 8 ohms is 30wpc. You can get more power output by using 4 ohm speakers, but unless you're trying to fill a large room or you just like LOUD music 50watt speaker will work.

My comment is that I agree that underpowered receivers or amps will easily damage your speakers. I learned the hard way when I was a teenager 25 years ago and the receivers I used then blew tweeters. Then I bought a Carver amp and felt the difference. At this time, I have Carver amps driving L/R/C/Sub Channels on my system. It is safer to have a 250RMS Watts per channel amp than a 40watt receiver. Of course if the Low Frequency Driver is damaged, obviously it was defective.

Your buying a power mixer that has a built-in amplifier. Your not just buying a sound board.

This is a good amp but it's for a small system. Like for myself, with no loud music all the time, just once in a while to show off. Lol. Your speakers have a range of 400 watts if I'm not mistaken, so it should power it since it's a 500w model. But I would recommend you to get a 1k watts amp. Kenwood's a pretty good brand for this. At least mine does the work like a charm.

You first need to match the OHMS of your speakers to the amp. If you have 8 ohm speakers, this amp will only put out 300 to 380 watts per channel. If your speakers are 750 watts @8 ohms, this amp is not powerful enough. You need headroom. If you are driving a 750 watt speaker @8 ohms, this amps is pushing 300 watts @8 ohms. NOT enough POWER&gt; You need headroom. After you match the ohms of the amp to the speakers, You should turn the amp all the way up, adjust the mixer volume without feedback, sing or play a song, watch your amp and if it clips in the red, back off the gain or volume of your mixer/ and or the power amp. Google matching up ohms for a better explanation. I hope you find this helpful and not confusing. Also, check out the Pyle 8000. It is probably what you need.

That is pushing the speakers to the limit and some, but you might maybe be ok playing them on one channel with the amp a little less than half way on the max control volume on amplifier. See if there is any distortion, with receiver or mixer half way up, if so you need smaller amp or speakers at least 200 watts rms. At 50 watts rms you only tipically looking at 25 continuess watts a speaker. Rms is the max the can handle before the amp clips or speakers blow visa versa.

I had to Yamaha 500 watt To 1000 watt each.am I using those speakers with a.m. QSC 500 watts and a mixer Gemini 6000 and I move those speakers very very very good very nice sounds

Since these are mid-size speakers, they really don't require a lot of power to sound great. Even 50W per channel for two channels is plenty. I'd shop around and decide based on what else you'll be using a receiver for, such as video. If audio is all you want/need then finding an amp should be a cinch. Onkyo, Pioneer and Harman Kardon would all be great choices for these speakers, it will just come down to personal taste and preference, as well as price considerations. Hope that helps and good luck!

This amp is not putting out 2100 watts to your speakers. Your speakers are probably 8 ohms. If they are 8 ohms they are getting 230 watts to each channel. 1050 Watts x 2 Power Amplifier 230 + 230 Watts @ 8 Ohms - 460 + 460 Watts @ 4 Ohms - 920 + 920 Watts @ 2 OhmsYou will need a much more powerful amp. Good luck!
