Folks,

After checking the archives for amplifying (pun intended) information - I have
decided that a small cabin speaker would be helpful for ground operation (pre-flight
etc).

My audio panel instructions call for a 4 ohm speaker which seem to be difficult
to locate.  8 ohm speakers are available in abundance.....

Will I fry something if I use a 8 ohm speaker?  Or will it not work properly -
volume, freq, distortion...?

Thanks,
Ralph Capen

It won't hurt a thing.  It will be just a tiny bit quieter.

There is a time to laud one's country and a time to protest.  
A good citizen is prepared to do either as the need arises.
