Dank Posted December 31, 2007 Report Share Posted December 31, 2007 I have a sony gx700es that is running my audio system, pic of my setup heres what it says on the back doubt you can read it, just noticed that but it says, if using channels A+B (which I am) select 4 ohms, and use 8 ohm or higher speakers, right now my subs are wired at 2 ohms, my question is, should I wire them to 8 ohms? would that work the best/put out the loudest sound with this receiver as the back says? any feedback is helpful to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

audiofanaticz Posted January 1, 2008 Report Share Posted January 1, 2008 the picture is all blurry. It makes me feel like im drunk already Most home audio recievers are 8 ohms.. Meaning you should run 8 ohm or higher speakers like you said. so 8 ohms per channel. Some nicer recievers will play decently at 4 ohms per channel (dennons, onkyos, yahmahas). My friends Onkyo will play 2 ohms without going into protect, but damn that thing gets HOT!! And in the owners manual it states that it is 2 ohm stable. I wouldnt try pushing your reciever too hard, they are not built up no where near as much as a car amp. No matter how you look at it, the lower ohm you run your amp at (pro audio, home audio, car audio) your amp will put out more power at lower ohms. But I for sure wouldnt run no lower then 4 ohm per channel esp when its telling you to run 8 ohms perchannel when using channels a and b. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REVOK1NER Posted January 1, 2008 Report Share Posted January 1, 2008 I could be wrong but if it says that it works best at 8 ohms then try it! 2000 Ford Explorer XLT -20" RVM "Buck" Wheels -2.5% Tint -CompuStar Vizion Alarm -(4) Infinity Kappa 680.7cs 5x7" -1 XStatic BatCap Model 300 -2 18" DC LVL 4's -Amps are undecided Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
