JustinWilson Posted May 8, 2011 Report Share Posted May 8, 2011 Hi there, I want to run a 1000 watt true rms front stage (Mids and Highs). I have a Rockford Fosgate T1000-4, T600-4, and T400-4. I only plan to use the T1000-4 for this build and the others only if needed. Please give me suggestions for high quality mids/highs that can be wired into multiple 2ohm loads to match each channel on my amp. Another option is to suggest mids/highs that can be wired into 1ohm loads and I can match inline resistors to meet my 2ohm load requirement. Thanks.

JustinWilson Posted May 8, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2011 I am tempted to run 4 sets of T142 RF full range speakers up front. Can anyone make a better suggestion please.

JustinWilson Posted May 8, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2011 Stay with them lol and do 1 speaker pur ch... 1 set per channel would work for the appropriate ohm load but it seems excessive on the power load lol...I was thinking of running 4 sets off the front channels with a inline resistor to get a 2ohm load and unsure for the rear channels...

blownengine Posted May 8, 2011 Report Share Posted May 8, 2011 A resistor is a no-no. Either power them at four ohms, or buy another set and wire them to two. no resistors.

JustinWilson Posted May 8, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2011 (edited) A resistor is a no-no. Either power them at four ohms, or buy another set and wire them to two. no resistors. Why not use resistors to achieve the correct ohm load? My plan was to wire 4 - 4ohm speakers into a 1ohm load then use a resistor to bring the resistance up to 2ohms at the amplifier channel.

JustinWilson Posted May 8, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2011 Then I could run 8 total 4ohm speakers on the front channels of the amp.

They are efficient, and therefore don't need much power. Quote Trunk Build Log Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
94retta(219) Posted May 10, 2011 Report Share Posted May 10, 2011 1000.4 two front channels get two 6.5 of choice in 4 ohm per channel. Back two channels get one 8 per channel for tough mid bass. Then 400.4 for tweets of choice one per channel. Bam your done Quote BUILD LOG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
