baaudio Posted January 13, 2011 Report Share Posted January 13, 2011 an amp doesnt see speakers. just the ohm load. so with components you wire them accordingly on the crossover and then you will get whatever load they advertise. now if you were mismatching the speakers, tweets, and crossover idk what you would get.

Autruche Posted January 13, 2011 Report Share Posted January 13, 2011 One part of the job of a crossover is to maintain a stable ohm load. For instance, I have O2 Audio Air 63s, and they are 3 way components. There are 3 speakers to a crossover, and all 3 speakers are 3.6 ohms each, but the final load on the crossover (what the amp sees) is still 3.6 ohms. When wiring multiple crossovers, they wire up just like speakers, 2 4 ohm crossovers wired in series are 8 ohm, 2 4 ohm crossovers wired in parallel are 2 ohms, so on and so forth. What RMS do you want to give each set of components? And how many sets will you have? Quote Need Test Tones/Sine Waves?

THEKINGsBACK Posted January 13, 2011 Report Share Posted January 13, 2011 check out the infinity kappa four... i absolutely love it... and it has a small i mean small footprint, about the size of a netbook Quote he wouldnt be the first to say they did a 167 with a system like that (one that clearly DOESNT), but i have to say, he didnt beat me anywhere, ive never competed against the guy. If he thinks his does a 167, mine would probably put him in a coma. :hairtrick: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
