Can someone tell me whether this unit is self contained, that is, it has its own speaker? Or do I have to add speakers to the unit? Thanks,

No speakers and this saves money if you have old speakers laying around. It's just a receiver with cd player and input for flashdrive (usb) and ipod and aux (3.5mm) jack. Yamaha does have similar versions with speakers and different colors.

The speakers are not included -- you will have to acquire them separately. I use Polk Audio bookshelf speakers that work terrifically with this unit.

This DOES NOT come with speakers. I purchased AudioEngine passive speakers to go with it and have since added a subwoofer. Great sounding and compact little setup!

If you intend to connect your own speakers, you will need an amplifier. We did not realize this when we made the purchase. It has good sound on it's own, but I have two large 1980's speakers I would like to hook up to it and have not decided on an amplifier yet. Richard and Barbara in Florida

Yes, the unit has a built-in speaker which works quite well, not in stereo, but sufficient for easy listening. I have used it in large rooms for dance practice, although it does not play at high volumes. You can use it plugged into wall outlet, or on batteries, which is a great convenience.

It is not equipped with speakers. You will need to buy a set of computer speakers. Amazon has a product category specifically for "compueter speakers".

It only has an internal speaker. If you want speakers you have to purchase then separately.

well, ya. quality components are sold individually. spend plenty more on speakers than this unit, as they make more of a difference. you'll also need an amplifier....

No. The unit does not come with either buit-in or external speakers. It does however have the necessary input/output jacks to which you can connect speakers.

Brian - Sorry, I really didn't track it before and after that closely. I wish I could answer, but can't. I can say that you should be able to install it on your own. It also sounds great!

This unit has no speakers, if that is what you mean. You will need to attach it to a receiver or something equivalent.

You are correct in that this is not a stand alone component. It would have to hook into some sort of system that has speakers. For instance, I have a Bose Wave unit, and these hooked right into it. Your cost for a sound system depends on the quality you want. If you have separate units (your speakers are separate from your amplifier), then this unit would have to go through your amplifier. Other than that, I don't know what to tell you, as I am only marginally tech smart! I can tell you that this Sony unit is excellent for playing and for copying CDs. However, I find it easier to make CDs through my computer these days!

Yes it has its own internal speaker. This unit did not last very long for me before it started falling apart. I am currently shopping for an alternative.

It does not have external speakers, you can use head phones. It has a built in microphone, it has low, medium, and high sensitive settings for the microphone.

Nope. Speakers are included. Check out its sides, those are the speakers, and they sound GOOD on closed areas like living rooms, bedrooms, etc. Nice buy! I love my stereo system.

No it does not come with the speaker, you can buy it standalone tho, it does have the hookup for it

It's quite simple , just plug and play. If you are adding additional speakers you will need to run wire to them. If you bought the base you will need to lift the unit onto it. You should not need a tech for any of this.
