Hello,

My suitcase only has 2 speakers in it. Is this normal? I want to make sure the internal amp is seeing the correct impedance.

Piano Specs:
1977 Suitcase
5 Pin Janus

Speaker Specs:
016255
E1098930 (Pyle)
12"
8ohm

Thanks,

P

Hi :-)

There should be 4...

Allways two speakers per channel in parallel... giving a total of 4 ohms per channel, which is correct.

Thank you so much for the confirmation Jenzz!

I will start looking for two more speakers.
