Adding two more speakers to an RV.

[Dunedin Tech]

Like to say Hi as well New Member. I not totally thumbs with wiring and electronics but a friend bought an old RV and there a new Pioneer head unit with just four speakers..Front and Rear...very simple. He wants to add two more just north of the drivers seat as the current "front" speakers are behind the driver. He was going to just splice in to the fronts and add a pair...I told him not the best practice. What the question is: how to do this the most simple way.

wire em in series raise the ohm load and you should be alright.....wired in parallel will drop ohm load and prolly fry HU

A small amp would help and improve the sound ... if your running basic speakers you don't need anything big or crazy ..the actual usable radio power is about 10 watts per ch . So 20 to 50 per ch of true watts is a hugh improvement in. Your sound ...
