TBS gave me an external speaker with a connector, like this:
 But there are two jacks on my kenwood. I've tried looking up a splitter/adapter, but no luck. The ports are labeled 1 and 2. I'm assuming each port is for each channel, so do I need to buy another speaker? |

You only need 1. You have the option of using both ports and having 1 speaker work on each receiver "left & right side"
If you use 1 speaker, plug it into the "1" jack. You will hear both "side" come through the speaker. |

If it is like my TM-732, you can plug in a single speaker more than one way. Examples: if you plug in to #1, the internal speaker does 2m audio & the external does 70cm, if you plug in to only #2, the internal speaker is disconnected & both 2m & 70cm come out the external. With two externals plugged in, one does 70cm & the other does 2m.

Needs a title change. Not a dumb question at all.

I run two speakers on my Kenwood 710a. I have the speakers on top of my dash/ip, one on left one on right. They correlate to the left and right sides/bands on my radio. They
work pretty well, but I think the audio amp does not have enough power to run them both at the same time, sometimes. My speakers are 4ohms so that might be part of the problem. |

I picked up a couple of Jetstream J-JTSP7 awhile ago. Currently only running one in my Jeep Patriot and it just sits in the back hooked up to my D710A. It sounds great and can be pretty loud when I crank up the volume. I need to figure out a place to mount it and the other one. I think when it finally warms up I'll get them mounted properly.
