Does the Becker Mexico radio cassette need an additional amplifier or power supply box?

In general it has a separate amplifier.  If the radio has a big grey cable with a plug on the end, that plugs into the amplifier.  If the radio has speaker output(s) on the back of the radio, then it does not take a separate amplifier.   I think there might be one Mexico model that doesn't have a separate amp, but that is the exception to the norm.

FWIW, DIN plug becker stereo amplifiers are compatible with all becker stereo radios.  Monos with monos.
