OT speaker wiring
Kinda weird place to ask, but im sure a lot of you guys have speakers in your egging area. Any way i got a couple outdoor speakers for nothing and set them up in my egging area. I wired them in series with a set of speakers on the other side of the wall in my garage. Everything works well but i would like to be able to shut off the outside speakers if im working in the garage especially late at night. Any ideas on how to wire a switch so i can turn the outside off while leaving the inside ones on while they are wired in series? Can you even just break one wire to shut a speaker off? or do you have to break the positive and negative?

From what ive seen all the selector switches run the speakers in parallel when both are ran at the same time. I have one 4 and one 8 ohm speaker. Running in parallel would fry my amp eventually

SONOS. Unlimited speakers, all playing the same or different music. No wiring other than an outlet and your WiFi

I have a switch like this between my amp and speakers. Can not only kill the sound, but also adjust the volume.

Sure,as long as you want to run all the sound through an App first and buy Sonos speakers

You can wire a rheostat and adjust volume (or turn down) your outdoor speakers, or 2 toggle switches to open the + speaker wires to the two speakers and shut them off. Easy peasy!

Thanks, was not sure about using standard home electrical parts on signal wire, also about only breaking one side of the connection

You just need a four pole on off switch.
