Crossover Impedance


Recommended Posts

Posted

Alright guys, im going to do a 3 way stage setup with 6.5" TB midbass, 6.5" dayton mid, 2 tweets on 3 way crossovers. Im also using dayton 4" mids with tweets on 2 way crossovers. ( This will be on a sundown sax 100.4 and channels 1 and 2 will be the 6.5's because they are each 50wRMS and the 4" on channels 3 and 4 bc they are only 30wRMS) My question is with the 3 way crossover, how do you find out the impedance at the amp without actually paying for it, wiring it and measuring with a dmm? The tangband and dayton are each 4 ohm so how does a crossover affect the impedance at the amp. I would guess the crossover is wired in paralell on the inside so i would see a 2 ohm load. If this is the case my next question which i believe i am correct, you can wire multiple channels to different ohm loads (1 and 2 @ 2 ohm, 3 and 4 @ 4ohm) as long as the final load the amp sees is no less than its lowest impedance?

Sorry so complicated :P

Thanks

yes you can run the front channels at 2ohm and the rear at 4ohm or 2 ohm as long as the minimal impedence is met. and far as the crossovers if all the speakers are 4ohm the final impedance should be at 4 ohm it might depent on the crossovers them self though. good luck
