The first item of business is how large is the layout you are going to run.   Will it need to be divided into blocks?  Will you need buss wires

The AC terminals on your 8000 sound system connect to the AC terminals on your Tech II 2500.

The track terminals on your 8000 sound system connect to the track terminals of your Tech II 2500.  These terminals of the 2500 also connect to your tracks.

The speaker terminals on you 8000 sound system connect to the terminals of an 8 ohm speaker.  If you do not have the speaker that originally came with the 8000 sound system, then any 8 ohm speaker can be used but in general, the bigger the diameter the better the sound.
