Try a 8 ohm 4 inch speaker.  Very common in arcade cabs.  110 Watts is more commonly used in arcade cabs 85 watts is low but should work with your multi board as it has alot fewer components then an old arcade game. You can get a 250W ATX supply for about $25.

AT supplies have a big switch on the side and do not use the computer MB connection.   The switch controls the AC directly from what I recall.  No pin shorting required.
