stereo speakers as uhf

[Pane]

G'day

I'm sure this has been discussed before but i'm thinking of running 2 4"coaxle speakers as extension speakers but how can it be done when the output of the uhf is mono.

Now the t608 kenworth i drive occasionally has this exact setup but i'm not about to start pulling it apart to find out how its done.

So whos done it or knows how its done?

Cheers

well the UHF isn't sending out a stereo signal - someone has simply split the mono input across 2 channels I'd say

608 pulls really well. It's better than the newer 609's but not as comfy. I do prefer the seat in the 608 though. The 608 also rattles in the dash fairly bad, will be interesting to see how te 609's age.

Very nice. Yeah I don't like my chances of getting in a nice Kenny any more. Had an accident at work (not a driving accident) and tore both my shoulders apart. Just had my left shoulder rebuilt 3 weeks ago. Not sure if ill be able to drive a Road ranger again need to look for autos.....

Yes, but how's that uhf stereo thing going? Keen to look at this myself.

Bad news on the shoulders btw - how'd you do it?

 

[DeanFoldi]

Sorry didn't mean to hijack. You will prob laugh your ass off I had a job on a super muddy site like shin deep. Had plenty of mud on my boots and as I got to the top step of my truck I slipped grabbed my seat with one arm and dislocated that shoulder.... Then when I fell after letting go of the seat I put the other arm out to break my fall which killed the other one.

Dude that's real unlucky, very unfortunate.

Depending on the impedance of the external speaker circuit in the UHF, you could probably use a cheap amp (with speaker-level input) to drive a couple of external coax speakers. Won't be a stereo signal, but would probably be nice and clear.

I'm thinking that most if not all UHF extension speakers are 8 ohm should I not b able to run to 4 ohms in series?

Cheap coaxles will do the job no worries at that rate.
