The most important part in choosing the amplifier is to match the same number of batteries. I was lucky this amplifier used 4 AAA batteries the Eneloop batteries I already had was 4 AA Eneloop batteries. Its about the same voltage 1.5V for each AAA and AA batteries. It ended up being about 6 volts total used.

After opening up the amplifier I found the positive and negative points on the circuit board. I attached two wires. One wire to the positive and one to the negative. I found this out by the multimeter and trial and error using the batteries.

After closing up the amplifier I applied Velcro to the back of the amplifier and the radio so it wouldn't rattle around inside the radio after I closed it up.

Next wiring it all up.
