6 speakers on 4 channel amp


conbon

Recommended Posts

So i have a four channel amp, Im planning on running 6 speakers. 4 kicker coaxials and 2 tweets, all 4 ohm speakers. How would this work? wouldnt 2 of the pairs have to be wired to 2 ohms instead of 4 if im not mistaken? So could i run the four door speakers to 2 ohms and then the tweets at 4 ohms? so the doors would be getting about 120 rms each and then the tweeters getting 60?

the amp is a Hifonics BRX5000.5

Ohm load is only affected where speakers share common frequencies. So your tweeters would be at 2 ohm, not the woofers if you are running one set of coax and a pair of tweeters off the same two channels.

Why not put a component set up there instead?

Static drops are my bag.

i dont want the tweeters at two ohms though. the coaxes are 100 rms so id put those at 2 ohms and they get around 120 and then the tweets would get 60 rms.

Are these speakers all going up front?

IF one set coax and one pair tweeters are on the same two amp channels you'll get 60x2 at woofer frequencies and 120x2 at tweeter frequencies--60 to the coax tweeter and 60 to the add-on tweeter. Theoretically, at least.

All the more reason to run a component set. Or clip the tweeter wire on the coax. Or don't run the extra tweeters.

No i would have 2 tweeters on the top of the doors, 2 coaxes in those door, and 2 coaxes in the back doors. and then the sub.

Then what I posted stands. No way to do what you want with that gear.

Edit: I mean make the numbers you want where you want to.

If the amp is stable. Why bit.

Also, that's why mids and tweets come in 8ohm versions.

12 speakers here on one 4 chan.

do you understand what this other guy is trying to explain to me bc i dont
