Hmmm... It's an 8 ohm speaker... an engineer friend told me to just use a guitar cable... so I wired the tip of the ¼" jack to the + terminal of the speaker and the sleeve to the minus terminal. I was planning on just plugging this into the unbalanced ¼" jack of a pre. How can a passive speaker mic blow a pre? (I guess I'll have to try it out on my Digi002 pre before plugging it into my API or Chandler!)
