Long time solderer, first time circuit designer. I've got an electronic billboard has two speakers, which according to the spec sheet are 5 watts, 8 ohms, and I want to reroute the signal from them to a 3.5 mm jack, that I'm going to plug into some 10 ohm computer speakers.
What intermediary changes do I need to make to the signal so none of the equipment is damaged? The audio file the billboard plays is mono, so should I bother wiring both speakers inputs into the new speakers? If not, is it safe just to throw an 8Ohm resistor on the side I'm not using? What else should I look out for?
Thanks in advance
