Just purchased a PA300 690009 24vdc model. My questions are #1 Do I need to run a converter or a second battery, or how do I power this thing at 24volts? And #2 are there any cheap speaker recommendations? Is there a way a can do a "hillbilly" hook up just to make sure its working. Maybe connect to battery and a little speaker? Purchased used for $55. Thanks for the feedback!
