Speakers for Arcade
« on: November 06, 2008, 10:44:04 pm »
Ok, I still have the original speakers in the cab but I want to connect them to the motherboard. Anyone has an idea on how to do this and what amp will it be better for it?  :dunno

Cheapest is to go buy a $5 pair of computer speakers, open it up and connect to the amp in the speaker with the volume control. More power then that wont really help with the cab's original speaker.
