Jon,
If I wire (2) 4 Ohm speakers together, would that would give me 8 Ohms and make the AP8 happy?

Audio is a weird game (it's analog AC), and I confess that I'm not expert at it; that said, I think you'll be fine.  The AP-8 will drive a 4-ohm load, but not with the same power output as an 8-ohm load.

Just make sure you wire them in Series, not in parallel!!!  ;)

Scaring someone with a prop you built -- priceless!
