What type of speakers do I need/want to work with my Duet?

You need to connect your squeeze biz to a receiver . There is no direct speaker connection to the squeeze box duet

If you don't want to connect to an audio AVR/receiver/amp you can connect it to any pair of self powered speakers using either the analog L/R out or the headphone 3.5mm stereo mini-plug out. The AudioEngine A5's or A2's are examples of incredible sounding self powered self amplified speakers. http://audioengineusa.com

You do need to connect to some type of amplifying device. The squeezebox has analogue line level output (L + R RCA sockets) as well as optical and coaxial digital output so that gives you lots of connection options.

If you want sound, you need a sound card. Speakers alone will not work. Check this out about how sound cards work: http://computer.howstuffworks.com/sound-card.htm

Sound devices of this type have no integrated speakers. I suggest you to buy some good ones as the Focal brand for instance or others as Bang & Olufsen , Bose

honestly you can use any speakers you choose. You can go from regular computer speakers to big 3 foot yamaha or pioneer speakers. It's all what you prefer and how loud you want it to be when you are mixing your music. Hope this helps.

The speakers themselve should be enough. I have a crappy sound card and these speakers sound wonderful! Good luck. They're awesome!

Absolutely, I am very happy with the speaker! My speakers must be able to bridge! I strongly recommend...

This should work for that. I have mine set up to work with an old pair of B&O; speakers, and it sounds great! It's not a super powerful amp, so it won't get all that loud, but it puts out good sound. It has both USB and RCA inputs so you can hook it up to a computer AND another external input.

I use a Monoprice 100722 Bluetooth transmitter adapter to beam out the sound to the best available speakers. Usually we have access to a Bose and the Big Jambox. They sound pretty good and they are both rechargeable also.

you can use any standard high quality speakers they will sound better if they are a matched set. the subwoofer output is unpowered so it needs to be a powered sub.

You could purchase a matching tower to your left and right front channel speakersI have not noticed a tinny sound. But my room is smaller and I do not crank the volumeYou could also try a Polk or Klipsh(disclosure theypurchased Jamo and now mfg. that brand and line)Those would be at the lower range of cost between 2 and 3 hundredI still think matching is you best option

Generally speaking you would need one receiver and two speakers. Receiver-wise I would suggest buying a recognized brand like Sony, Yamaha etc. but save money by buying it used. Just make sure you can test it/hear it before you buy, make sure it works properly. Harmon Kardon makes (or made) excellent equipment that you can now get used for a low price. Speaker-wise, not sure to recommend, I always seem to end up with hand-me-downs that work fine - I think the current pair are KLM. I would cruise craigslist and when you find something that fits your geography and budget, do a search for reviews on that model of receiver/speaker to get a better idea about it. And/or bring an audio geek friend along with you when you go to check it out. You can also try pawn shops or stereo stores that carry used gear - the latter will be pricier probably but would like offer some sort of warranty. Best of luck to you.

I did not see any speakers mentioned in the manual. You could e-mail, or call, Denon. My older Bose speakers are doing great!

Syncing is easy, simply tie your other speaker into this one. A double end cord from one to the other should work fine as long as both speakers are powered.

Sandra: Any high quality speakers will work with this receiver. I use a BOSE system, but Keff, Polk Audio or JBL speakers are great brands as well.

I see that the ohms and amps of the receiver meets the speaker requirements, so I dont see an issue with the combination. The speakers are good for any low end setup, check out others such as Bose, Definitive technology,Energy around the same price range. Listen to sound from these speakers, the preference varies from person to person, some look for low frequency specifically, some look for overall performance...it depends!

You need an audio interface. Usually plugs in via USB. The. The speakers can conect to that. They connect via 1/4 inch cables. An interface will run you about 200 for a cheap one that's good enough.
