STEvil Posted March 20, 2011 Report Share Posted March 20, 2011 (edited) Different ohms on different channels is fine but having mixed ohm loads on a single channel isnt really a good idea. Example from above of 3 tweeters parallel seriesed to 2 tweeters in parallel would work but would likely cause some strange power issues resulting in different harmonics being produced from each set of drivers on the channel. In short it would just sound strange. If you had a single 8 ohm driver and a single 4 ohm driver in parallel it would be fine, Edited March 20, 2011 by STEvil Quote MickyMcD - "Capable of making some serious trouser flapping volumes at where's-my-testicles frequencies, the Servo-Drives used to be fairly jaw dropping..." Any time you have have a power wire next to your frame put some rubber hosing (or cut up an innertube) around it. The wire is bound to wiggle (due to driving or flex) and the casing will eventually wear through. Hammerdown... 1% no links to outside websites, business related FB/YT pages allowed.

But how would a single 8 ohm with a single 4 ohm be any different? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STEvil Posted March 20, 2011 Report Share Posted March 20, 2011 (edited) They would likely be different drivers meant for different purposes - say a mid and a tweeter. Should have specified that before, my bad ; ) Edited March 20, 2011 by STEvil Quote MickyMcD - "Capable of making some serious trouser flapping volumes at where's-my-testicles frequencies, the Servo-Drives used to be fairly jaw dropping..."
