[QUOTE="mbasko, post: 287834, member: 4485"] If you use an external speaker/s then IMO they do make a difference. Definitely lift faint signals & also easy to adjust volume on the run to suit any change in conditions/background noise. For some the inbuilt battery amp works fine with an external speaker so they find them unnecessary - you would need to try both & see what you prefer. For headphones they're not recommended & IMO not required. They can actually damage your hearing. Some do use them though & again it would be personal preference. You can also wire headphones to "trip" the battery amp as per how the external speaker should be wired. There is a diagram in the manual showing how to wire for the internal amp to "trip" on.
