Can I plug my DVD player directly into the speakers or do I need to buy a mixer?

Hi. Yes, there are (RCA) line level inputs for left and right channels. Please keep in mind that this unit has only 1 speaker, so left and right channels are mixed together outputting mono sound. I was impressed with the sound considering the 1 speaker, but it is not stereo. I use it for my DJ business as a portable PA speaker and it works just great. I have also used it in my house as an external speaker allowing me to listen to music from phone in a medium sized room and it is plenty loud.

you can plug to your player directly into the Behringer. for the best sounding audio I would use a mixerbut that is just me.

This is self contained - on board mixer-just plug the audio out from the DVD into the RCA jacks on the front. Its loud -real loud!!

You can plug into the RCA jacks in back. You can play CDs, iPod, iPhones, etc...

Yes, of course. Just plug the speakers into an un-powered output of the mixer.

I use regular speaker wire that runs from the back of my tuner (not my DVD player) into the speakers. I then run an output from my tuner into my DVD player. I hope this helps.

you have to hook up the DVD player to and AV receiver which will be connected to your 5.1 speaker system; the DVD does not have any amplifier

You will need some kind of audio software. This is not a standalone hardware piece you can simply plug into a mixer, it is an audio interface that must be plugged into a computer.

Jonathan - yes, you can hook up a CD player or any other music player as long as your CD player has a connector for headphones. Then all you do is buy a 3.5mm male-to-male cable and connect the DVD player to the Panasonic speakers. I mostly use the Panasonic with a Bluetooth connection to my laptop, iPhone, iPad and Nano but I've used it with a cable as well. Nice sound and good product. I own two of them I like them so muchAlso, the female input jack is next to the power cord. Not easy to see but it's there

The speakers have to plug into the DVD box it comes with. If you want to have your PS3 play sound through the speakers, you have 2 options, (unless you have a TV with arc HDMI. I did not have this.) Your first option, use an optical audio cable to direct the sound from te TV to the DVD box. Your second option, use A/V cables to play sound from the PS3 or TV to the DVD box. If you don't have those cables, you can find them for pretty cheap in various places. I used A/v for my Xbox until I bought an optical audio cable. They both work well, but you'll get better results with the optical audio cable. Bare in mind, you'll have to have the DVD box on in order for the sound to come through. Hope this helps!

It has HDMI so, yes you could hook it directly to a DVD player; but there are no speakers.

It can be connected directly to dvd player, IF it has an input. Most DVD players don't have input, so the answer is no.

Of course. You can use only the speakers leaving the DVD player just as am curently doing.I have my DVD player packed down whiles I use the other accessories.

I hooked my DVD player up through my surround sound receiver. From the looks of the back of the TV it looks like you could hook your DVD player to it.

Yes If the DVD Player has Video RCA video Output (Yellow connector) or SVGA connector. The speakers (RCA red and white) are low power so the sound will not be so good. Beware It's 800x600 resolution so the image will not be the standard 1080p

The speakers require amplification which very few DVD players provide. You'll need some sort of amplifier (such as a receiver) to use them. Make sure the receiver you get has at least 5.1 channel amplification (as opposed to only stereo). I would ask around in a forum dedicated to audio/home theater such as avsforum.com (search the forum to see if others have already asked and been answered).

Yes, you have two options. The back side of the right speaker has both a headphone jack (female), and red/white jacks (female) for sound IN. This means that using the supplied cable (which has male headphone plug on one end, and male red/white on the other), you simply flip the cable to accomplish either connection. So, you can plug into your DVD/TV player if they have a headphone jack (female), or red/white (female) for sound OUT. If that doesn't make sense, I think you'll see what I mean when you start connecting. It's a clever solution by Genius to give you options.

I have the RCA output of the DVD player hooked direct into the input of the eq. It label well on the back of the eq. Use a good set of RCA
