diy guitar cab. Quick wiring question with photo

[filthyrich]

Let's say I use a single jack system with one + and one ground terminal and wire in parallel as shown here. This would give me 8 ohms on my two 16 ohm speakers..But..

If each of the + and - terminals on the speaker have 2 places to solder to, can I use a jumper to the other speaker instead of trying to solder two wires to the actual 1/4" jack?

Thanks.

yes.. if I understand you correctly it will work. Since current flows to whatever its connected to (essentially) there really isn't a difference.
