Hey all, I'm almost finished with my mame cab and I'm about to start on the "sound system" part of it. |

Get the cheapest amplified PC speakers you can find, hack them apart, and hook up the cab's speaker to the amp. |

I bought a 1/8" DIN jack from Radio Shack and soldered wires to it. These wires I then attached to the speaker in my cab. Works quite well. I've done it with three cabs now. |
