Can you use a mixer as an amp if so what would be the best?

If the mixer has an amp built in, yes but not just a standard mixer, no. Mackie, Allen&Heath and Behringer all are well known brands. These are 8 ohm speakers so you need to make sure that any amp will provide adequate power at 8ohms.

Yes you can if you have connector's in the back of your powered mixer. There should be an input connector on the powered mixer.

2 if you use it as a stand alone unit, but the best use of it would be to place it in line between your mixer and speakers. That way you could eq your whole mix.

Amp is a little underpowered for that. I would look at something a bit more beefy.

Yes you need a PA mixer , and you will also need a mid/high frequency speaker to go with it. This speaker is a Sub only.

No, this is just a mixer. I used 2 amps with it and everything worked great.

You just use a basic mixer since the speakers are powered by their own amplifiers.

I don't think so! I don't use any amp and they are really good for mixing. I think that they are just perfect

Heaven's yes. You could use it with any power amp as long as it has 1/4 inch inputs or you have adapters (the output on the mixer is 1/4 inch) I use it with a number of power amps and I also use it to premix 4 instruments into a small 100 watt fishman acoustic guitar amp when I play in little tiny venues. The size of the power amp will make no difference as the mixer just sends a low power signal. The only thing I've found that I don't like with this mixer is that the RCA inputs are very low gain and there isn't a lot of signal to the phone jack either (I also use this mixer for home practice, running instruments in along with an mp3 player into the RCA's and no gain control for those inputs - you don't get much volume even with everything turned up as loud as you can)

As far as I know you can't. You need a mixer with built-in USB port and those are expensive.

Yes you can use a headphone on this mixer. Like Matt said, just plug a 1/4 inch jack in (or use adapters) on your headphones. You can use monitor out or speaker out. I don't know why Sean S says you can't so I am wondering if he might have a different mixer. But this mixer was made for speakers and it sounds best that way in my humble opinion.

Yes, you can use the 1/4" L/R outputs or an XLR cable to route your signal straight to the mixer. No need for an amp if you use the amp modeling in the G3X.

You can mix them without problems. The center will probably sound much louder so you just need to adjust your amp to your taste.

No. This is not a DJ mixer. Its a external sound card. Its also not good enough for professional use. It has grounding issues and a high failure rate.

I tried to use the built in amp of this mixer and the quality of the sound is not good enough. I ended up using powered speakers on this mixer. I'm not sure if it has XLR line out put on, but I used 1/4 plugs instead, this way you just use it as a non powered mixer

It would work. I have done it with a small Behringer mixer. Start with a low ouput from the mixer.

From what it looks like you will need the speakers and a mixer as well, so you plug the amp into the mixer and the mixer to the speakers, but personally I would not recommend using these speakers in conjunction with a guitar amp. They are meant for a recording studio.
