Okay, so.. I found this little Logitech Z-323 theater system thingy. And I was bored... And had 3 extra speakers and a audio splitter lying around...
Sooooo....
Well I hooked 3 extra speakers to the subwoofer which only came with spots for two.
Basically, since I had one splitter and four speakers. I stripped the wiring to two speakers and connected it with the other jack to the same one
Also, all the speakers have the same Impedance, which is 4 ohms.
Just wondering if this is safe and/or will it ruin any of the speakers/subwoofer/amp?

Sorry, can't help this time! :P

Might not want to do that, you could actually break the speakers or cause a fire. I'm no electrician, but if it's not suppose to have more than what they give you, it could get dangerous.

Technically speaking you're breaking OSHA here. its extremely dangerous to modify electronic cord in any way without approval from the manufacturer.

I don't know much about wires but just remember. It's better to be safe than sorry. Just don't blow up your house ^-^
