All you need to play is a set of headphones.  If you want to play them
without headphones, you'll need some sort of amplifier.  I ran mine
through my stereo, and through a small amp.  I wasn't happy with
either solution.  I ended up getting a 75 watt keyboard amp, and it's
the ticket! The Fender KX-100 (80w) and the Peavey KB/A-100 (75w) are
both fine amps and should serve you well for very small to small size
gigs.  They are both in the 350-400 US dollar range.
