Does it have a built in amplifier? If so, how loud does it get outdoors?

Thanks for your question. There is a built in amplifier. This gets very loud outside. This is a fantastic sounding speaker. World Wide Stereo is 35 years old and a very proud Soundcast dealer.

No. It has no amplifier in it, it is strictly a mixer. You have to use it with an external amplifier, or with amplified speakers.

It does not. However once you put it on, you'll barely hear any outside noise anyway.

No. This unit has no amplifier. It is designed to be installed in a rack system or used with a home theater system so an external amp is necessary.

Yes it has a built in speaker, ear phone jack that could also be used for an outside speaker

Not very loud, I shoot it in my backyard in a subdivision with no problems.

It is loud enough. I have had it for almost two years and I turn it on when I get ready to leave my home. I can hear it over the shower. Sometimes when I am cleaning I can hear it over the vacuum. So it being outside it might be. Open spaces may not be the best cuz the sounds needs something to bounce off of. If you are just looking for something to have in the background for outside it is perfect.

We haven't used it since last summer so I don't remember but I don't remember it being super loud, it's just a little guy....It's supposed to be 60's here this week so I'll pull it out again and let ya know.

Hard to say...it does get loud. It has never disappointed us, but we don't use it in that environment. Everyone who meets it, loves it. It might be awkward to use on a bike.

Well, I haven't used it outside but I use it in my living room and listen in the kitchen while I'm working. I really like it but as far as range ... it depends on how well you hear. It can be very loud... Im probably not much help but it is really loud.I have never maxed it out.

No. Its not very loud at all. The problem is the gauge is not accurate, and it seems they've known about the issue but haven't fixed it yet. It will also blow fuses if you're not careful.

Yes, extremely loud. The noise made from this unit literally hurt my ears. We will not be using it this summer; I told my husband to take it to his office. Hope this helps. If you do find a quiet unit, please let me know!

Yes it does, it works fine if you are indoors but if your outdoors and there's any wind or side noise it will be hard for people to hear you

It goes fairly loud and the quality is pretty good at the louder volumes. I use it out in my backyard when I'm BBQing.

It can be loud at times. Not all the time, but it happens at random. Sounds like a large caliber rifle. Not a 12 gauge. So it may scare a neighbor if they are outside.
