Ive got a raspberry pi playing video for some safety stuff to employees. I need better audio then the tv has. I do have 4 smallish speaker sitting around that take bare speaker wire.

What is the best way to do this? Should I get some kind of baby amp or something? Ive tested the pi and the 3.5 mm jack takes over the moment I plug something in so thats no problem. Could I split the 3.5 into 2 3.5s? Then just strip the wire and plug it into 2 speakers? Id get by with 2 if its got the power to drive that.

There are very inexpensive splitter adapters you can buy. The question is more of power, and that depends on the speakers and the space you're trying to fill with sound. A cheap amp might be worthwhile.

Its a basement. Concrete walls ceiling and floor. I turned it into a lunch room for workers so they are not near machines when they dont need to be. Had a problem with someone deciding to eat lunch on something then fell off it.

Ive got three picnic tables down there long ways and room for two more. Its a pretty big room but I dont want to drown it. Its a lunch room and it seemed a good idea to rotate saftey videos in the background as a sort of reminder.

Ill start looking for a small amp that takes 3.5mm thanks.

You need an amplifier. eBay has Chinese ones that have a 3.5mm input and take 12v power for under $10 but it'll take a long time to get to you. You could also just find a pair of powered computer speakers at Goodwill.

Ill look into amps thanks.

Can I just strip a 3.5mm cord and then feed that into a speaker that expects bare wire?

Also what about a speaker selector? Seems like they take one input and multiple outputs. Only thing is I dont see a plug which makes me think these need an amp in the end anyways.
