Folks, got the young lad an Alessis Nitro e-kit for Xmas as below

Tbh, I'm getting more use out of it than him! However, id like to get the drum sound out of a speaker rather than through headphones. Alessis do their own one which is quite small and mounted on the frame, some of the reviews suggest the sound is a bit weedy and im looking for something with a bit more punch. Completely clueless about this stuff. Not looking to break the bank either.
Any recommendations?
Since it has a headphone output, you could connect it to a hi-fi (or any regular audio player) with a RCA->1/4" cable. You don't need anything too specialised, beyond that.

I have this. Beast of a yolk. Highly Recommended.

I was thinking about getting the pro version,is it as good as they say it is?
The Nitro Max is a lovely bit of kit but I'm just looking at it from a novice perspective. The pro version is an extra €200, I'm not entirely sure what the different specs entail apart from visually looking a bit more like a real kit. I think both are quite reasonable in comparison to other e-kits
