Quoted from drbrain:

I know this is an older post but trying to get to the bottom of upgraded all 3 speakers in an Elvira Premium. I already have the upgraded plates from Speakerlightkits.com and the recommended Kenwood backbox 5.25 inch 1366 speakers. The Kenwood 5.25 inch speakers are 4 ohm and the Pyle PLPW8D 4/8ohm dual voice coil speaker has been recommended for the cabinet. It can be wired as either 4 or 8 ohms. Since all the speakers could be 4 ohms and I assume connected to individual channels, haven't checked wiring on Spike 2 to see if it is series, parallel, or direct, I know there is a setting in Spike 2 games that allows you to change to 4 ohm speakers versus 8 ohm speakers. I was curious what others have done and if anyone knows the wiring on Spike 2? Just don't want to overload the board.

Any update on this? I'd like to swap out my Iron Maiden Pro speakers for the Kenwood 1366 speakers also.

Thanks!
