This Behringer 215 speaker has two 1/4" phone jacks that are wired in
parallel. It also has two Speakon jacks wired in parallel to
facilitate adding extra speakers to the system. The unit came to me
with one broken 1/4" phone jack. The picture of the pc board is here.

The Speakon jacks were fastened to the back panel of the cabinet
with two screws per jack. On the other end of the screw was a nut.
Unfortunately, the nut wasn't anchored to anything so it was futile
to try and remove the screw. The circuit board prevented me from
inserting any tool in there to hold the nut while I was turning the
screw.

** A small, long blade screwdriver does the trick - just wedge the
tip between the nut and the body of the Speakon to prevent it turning.

The jack sockets should be "mono" versions - stereo ones will short
out as you have found.

Thanks for the confirmation of the mono plug and the trick to remove the
screw in the Speakon jack.
