External Speakers

Post by KG4VDK »

Anyone have any experience with the Midland 21-406 external speakers? I am looking at getting a few just wondering how do I connect them to power to run them @ 15W. The only connector I hear about on them is a 3.5mm Mono jack. Thanks in advance

This is not an amplified speaker so it requires no power. It is just a speaker with a 15W maximum power rating. To get 15W, you need to drive it with a radio with that audio output power.
