Would this require an external AMP? Or would my pioneer head unit be enough power?

Steven,I use these in my truck, with just a regular radio powering them, no extra unit required. They sound great. Hopethat helps.

One doesn't necessarily need an external power amp but with it the system would work better

you will need a preamp or a reciever with preamp outputs...its a nice unit for the money, it does have a power gain control on the back of the unit if you are pairing it with another amp..good luck

Probably not, your going to need a amp otherwise they end up fairly underpowered

You would need an amplifier and speakers. Or use headphones, since it has a headphone jack.

Why would you want to do that? Look into the BIC subs for home stereos. I have one and it is powerful and it has a amp connected to it. Even if you hook it up to a home stereo, this sub still needs lots of power.

I'm no expert but I recommend Pioneer's 1300W amp. It will sound amazing with that!

It's not too much, in my opinion, i think it will be perfect. You could connect ONE of these or have TWO 750.1 amplifiers, but i think it will take too much wiring. Just remember that speakers need their proper box (i would suggest a BIG vented box) and that they also need to be properly connected. And for the amp, just remember not to set the gain all high, but at least 3/4 of the way, make sure you also have a big fared capacitor (you don't want to drain out the car battery) or a second battery, and also make sure it has the proper gauge wires (for the battery, ground, and as well for the speakers) and a fuse. Thanks

The unit only has provisions for a external head set. I couldn't find anywhere on the unit or in the manual mentioning external speaker. You maybe able to use a speaker using the head set output. You would need an amp. to boost the power to speaker.

it'll sound like crap you need a two way speaker amp and don't but boss FYI best off to buy pioneer for those

It will work without a head unit if your car amp should have a RCA input jack.

I did not need an amp for these units. I am using an pioneer avic navi unit. Any upgraded stereo unit has more than enough power to run these and still sound good

As the other responses say, yes, you do need an Amp or a receiver. Good Luck

No......it needs a amp to power it. Such as a surround sound receiver or stereo system.

You would need to own an amplifier and speakers. This is not a stand alone unit. It is a component for a component entertainment system.

doubtful that you'll need an amp unless your receiver is literally a POS. I would suggest you buy a higher grade speaker wire (I have 16 gauge on mine) and that you bi-wire them as well.

You won't need an amp, but the mic will have to be powered using batteries and the receiver will be plugged into a wall

This will absolutely work using a 12v supply from your cigarette lighter I bought this little amp just so I could plug my mp3 into it I have a Ford Escort and in order to install a head unit I would have to buy a new face plate at $90.00 and with this I now can connect my mp3 and it works very well but beware of the quality of the 12v plug you use some can pick up electronic static while the cars engine is running !
