I have a rare (but not in a good way) receiver. It has two sets of speaker outputs, each showing 4 contacts as: (1) red RIGHT, the (2) black COM, then (1) red LEFT.....for speaker pair ONE.
I want to play a mono signal from the receiver through a single speaker. (Of course, I want to retain the music contained in both the Left and Right channels.) This receiver has a mono switch on the front. The speaker connections on the back are the ones you push the wires into the hole and release the button to capture. (This is purely for spoken voice, which is why MONO.)
What do I put between the receiver and my single speaker. Do I use one photo plug? Into left or right on the receiver? Then use the other end with two bare wires to connect to the speaker? Do I need a 'Y' phono plug (two into one)? Is using the MONO switch on the front changing the desired impedance?
It says to stay above 8 ohms. I haven't bought the speaker (exciter) yet, so I can decide on the ohms when I know more.
