I should add, the second box needs to be wired as standard (ie parallel), otherwise it too would need a shorted plug to complete the circuit.

Note that this prevents the first speaker working unless the second is plugged in (or you make a custom NL2 plug with the pins shorted to complete the circuit when using only one box).

Yes ignore orther poles/tabs , also allows to config/change in the future so nl4s way to go

also remember the nl2 and nl4 connectors will mate with nl4 sockets, the nl4 connectors wont mate with a nl2 2pole socket...

YES! That is how ALL my nl4's are wired.
If it sounds like a gorilla is trying to escape, turn it down.

That pic shows how to wire the sockets in parallel. So the nex box you plug in, the amp will see a parallel'd set of speaker boxes.
