Default alarm speaker question

hey everyone, I was wondering..can i hook up an extra alarm speaker by simply slicing into my main speaker under the hood? or would i need a relay or some other crap?

Reason i ask, is because when i go to PickNpull, i can buy these alarm speakers from wrecked cars for $1.

You mean "Siren"? and no you shouldn't just splice, the miniture amp is not equipped to handle two however you can run the alarm siren output to a relay and then to the secondary siren.

Yes, depending on what siren you run. And what alarm you have. Dei alarms can power two sirens. I really don't see why you need 2 main sirens. Unless your putting one in the car and one hidden on the outside.

Main siren and back up siren is my guess

DOH!!! should have read.......If your going to add two sirens at least invest in a back up siren (one that contains a battery built into it).
