Why You Need An Amplifier
-
Amplifiers come in all shapes and sizes and they push out all different amounts of power. Now when I talk about power what I'm all about is the actual signal, the actual amount of power that will go into a speaker to make lots of volume. If a DJ just had his equipment in front of him, turntables, and a mixer and headphones and nothing else then there would be no way of that music he is making to be relayed to people who want to listen. So for people to be able to listen to it at a good suitable level, you need one of these guys here, an amplifier.
