I want to buy this for my son for Christmas, but I know nothing about it. Can you use only one? Does it need an amp to work?

Yes you can run one and You need an amp. Which means running power. Look at the alpine mrv m500 or kenwood kac8105d.run this in parallel for a 2 ohm load final and either make 2 cubic foot box ported. Belva makes a nice sealed pre made 1.7 cubic foot box but honestly building one is way better.If you have an further questions about installation or anything else let me know somehow! Best of luck and Merry Christmas

You can choose to only use one if you would like. It also works with other speakers if you have the right connection cord.

Nope. What you see is what you get. It really needs an amp too but it'll work without one.

Unless I've understood you incorrectly it sounds like you have answered your own question. You should use the amps separately. If you must use them together you should make sure that the power going into the other is turned down almost all the way otherwise you will blow one or both of them up.

You can just buy two subs. That is perfectly fine for the wattage being brought out.

sounds like you could use TWO! I use this amp for bass and baritone guitar. Never tried it with electric drums. Tone and punch are good, but this is not a gigging amp and is not going to shake your guts. However it lasts HOURS on a charge even at near-full volume. I use it for streetcorner playing with an acoustic guitarist and cocktail kit drummer, perfect.

I ordered this model and they shipped a AG790 instead of the AG790A...I'm sure the comnections are the same...I agree with the two previous answers. Strip the insulation, twist the ends, insert in the connectors and tighten. Simple. You can power 2 or 4 speakers with this amp.

Yes, make sure you hook up the preamp to input two, not one, and it will work fine. If you read the reviews, you will read that some are reporting that the amp cuts out, that is because they are using input one instead of two. This is the same unit sold as the Audiosource amp 100.

Since there are 2 inputs you'd have to use a splitter box to feed the amp. I haven't done it but I have seen other players doing this. I can always find my "groove" with one or the other channels. They both offer great sounds. This amp has got to be one of the all time best values there is! I've owned Brunos, older Voxes, Matchless, etc. This amp sounds as good as them. No kidding!

I wish I would asked this question before I bought this for a Christmas present. Apparently you need an amp to connect it to, which we don't have, so we've never even used these :(

it depends on how much sound you are looking to get. if you wish to power up with only rca connectors, then yes, you will need another amp to get sound. this unit does have a main output for speakers but they are only for bare threads. as far as sound goes, it will do ok in a smaller room but don't expect to be blown away.

No amp needed, the sub powers the speakers. However, I would recommend the Logitech z506 instead. I have both and I regret purchasing the acoustic audio speakers. Logitechs are better sounding, louder, more durable, and easier to set up.

No you have to get seperate one that is amp as required, i purchased mine at radio shack.

sorry I'm not to tech savvy. I had a friend help and I didn't know much of what was going on. I do have a separate amp, which is an inuke nu1000sp, made by a behringer. I have 3 total, 1 each on three chairs. they do work really good, especially compared to the higher price ones. if I can find more info I will let you know.

I would read the manual. I used to do this for a living and frankly I can count on one hand the number of multi channel amps that I installed that had to have all 4 inputs used. Typically there's a set that you can use as two channel inputs that will provide input to all four channels if you don't have anything plugged into those. And typically these amps that required all four channel inputs were very high end like Zapco, MacIntosh, stuff like that.

I think you would either want one or the other, not both. From my experience, multiple amps are not complementary.

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
