Psykotyk Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 im hooking up 2 8ohm Crescendo FT1 super tweeters together in parallel at 4 ohm, i was wondering do i need 8 ohm crossovers to match the tweeter or 4 ohm crossovers because thats the final impedance? Soundstream PN4.320D 4 channel amp if that makes any difference cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowDrifter Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 4 ohm, because it's the final impedance. But my question to you: Why are you using 4 ft-1s? ~~~~~~~~SAY NO TO PHOTOBUCKET~~~~~~~~ Snow's DD-1 tracks here: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/167433-snows-dd-1-tracks/ My take on OFC vs CCA: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/110381-things-that-piss-you-off-in-the-car-audio-world/?do=findComment&comment=2461444 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnowDrifter Posted May 6, 2013 Report Share Posted May 6, 2013 haha i just re read you post and you mis understood me, im only puuting in 2... at 4 ohms Back up. Are you wiring them in parallel? You will lose your left/right stereo by doing that. What I would do is wire the tweeters each on their own channel. Each with their own crossover. So you have your left and right sides vs. playing in mono. And to do that, you'd need 8 ohm crossovers. I thought you were using 4 because I assumed you were running 2 per side lol ~~~~~~~~SAY NO TO PHOTOBUCKET~~~~~~~~ Snow's DD-1 tracks here: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/167433-snows-dd-1-tracks/ My take on OFC vs CCA: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/110381-things-that-piss-you-off-in-the-car-audio-world/?do=findComment&comment=2461444 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
