Hard wire CB PA to headunit with switch?

I want to loop in a switch to one of my speaker output from my headunit to my PA powerhorn so when I'm playing something from my stereo it would play externally on my PA with the flip of a switch.

What I was wondering, would a normal toggle switch work with speaker wire sound like a normal power or is there a specific type of switch I would need to get?

um... why would you want to do this?

everyone here who has one drives these:



everyone who see's these guys at the meets when they pull up laugh at them. they open all their doors stick their feet out, pop their trunk and go swangin.

what im trying to say is until you get lambo doors and atleast a screen in every head rest, were keeping how to do it a secret.

Ummmm...Wow that was really useless information and very degrading.

To answer your uneducated question, we have a haunted house in the woods which I'm apart of. I tow the haystack ride, and have a bunch of Halloween sounds on my ipod that I would like to play on my PA speaker during the event. The little kids think it's cool and it adds to the season.

This is also true for the local Christmas parade.

well if you said that i would of had a nicer response.

are you wanting to still have the PA function or just have the music playing?

the cobra 19 cb has a choice between cb and pa so thats how you can turn it off, or just press the off button. if you do it that way you could just splice your wires into a speaker and be done with it.

Oh I'm sorry, I didn't know we lived in a world that required an explanation to be nice to someone.


I still want to keep my PA function, I just want music/sounds to play on the PA horn with a flip of a switch.

....and I've already explained this is not my intentions and regardless what I want to use it for if you don't have anything valuable to put toward the thread GTFO.

Now, a mature adult would know if you don't have anything to provide then move on yet the smell you bring to this thread wreaks of immaturity.

Guys, the man asked a legitimate question. If you want to help him with an answer, then do so. If you choose not to, then fine, just stay quiet. It is not within your scope to express an opinion on what he is doing unless he requests an opinion. No more of the thread crapping, please.

if you have a cb radio you should just be able to run rcas from the HU to the cb and do it that way but you shuld be able to get a regular 2 prong switch and wire it into the positive speaker wire so that when you flip it, it completes the circuit and walaa

I figured it out with some helpful hints from a friendly forum so I figured there might be someone out there who may want to do this and to avoid the aggravation I went through I made this little diagram up.

To those who tried to help, Thank you. To those who did not....."insert here".
