- Do the R1280T speakers need an amplifier?
- No. The amplifier is built into the left speaker, so you connect a source directly. You only need a source with RCA output, such as a turntable with a phono preamp, a TV or a computer.
- Do they have Bluetooth?
- No. The R1280T has two RCA inputs only. For wireless playback you need the Bluetooth version of this speaker line or a separate Bluetooth receiver.
- Can I connect a turntable?
- Yes, if the turntable has a built-in phono preamp or you use an external one. The speakers have no phono input of their own.
- Can I add a subwoofer?
- No. There is no subwoofer output on the R1280T. If you want to add a sub, look at models in the line that include a sub out.
- What is in the box?
- You get the two speakers, a speaker cable to link them, an RCA cable, the remote and a power supply. The supply is universal, 100-240V.
- Are they good for TV use?
- Yes for a small room. Connect the TV's RCA or headphone output and use the remote for volume. They are not loud enough to fill a large living room.
