Apparently this IS a 70V system already. I measured 7.5 ohm resistance on the Bogen SPT 15A speaker; But according the specs tab on this, it IS a 70V speaker. So the speakers and amp must be right.

We still have the problem of popping Ps and blowing out the larger bogen SPT30A.

Thanks!

 OK, Here is the setup.  (military firing training range,

** snip **

 SO WE HAVE 5 SPEAKERS, ALL WIRED IN PARALLEL ON ONE
 CIRCUIT, PLUS 2 SPEAKERS WIRED IN PARALLEL ALONG THE WALL
 ON A SEPARATE CIRCUIT, BUT BOTH CIRCUITS ON THE SAME AMP
 OUTPUT.

This is a problem if it is wired 8 ohm.  If it is a 70 V
distribution, it's fine.

 PROBLEMS:

I'm on my way out the door, so I don't have time to answer in
detail until later.  But it sounds like you have problems.
*smiles*

 The plan so far:
 1 replace all wires from amp to pole 3
 2. wire speakers 3 and 4 from speaker 2, not from an
 underground splice. 3. Tie up wires above speakers so that
 there is a drip loop to prevent water from running down
 inside the sheathing.

 What other suggestions do y'all have?

Grease all the connections at the junction boxes.  Wire nuts
are okay, but slather on the wheel bearing grease.

 My questions?  Should the u shaped underground conduit runs
 be drilled to drain water, or sealed to prevent water
 entry, or extended above ground so that  water can't
 enter?

I would try to seal it - but still leave a drain hole 'cause
some water will someday get in.  If the drain hole can become
a fill-from-the-bottom hole, I'd sure try to get the box up
higher.

Gota go.  I'll try to expound later.
