I know this is a rookie ? but here it goes if i have 4 6 1/2" speakers
@ 4 ohms each. And i have a 4 channel amp that puts out 50w x 4
@ 4 ohms. 75w X 4 @ 2 ohms Do i take each speaker and wire it to two ohms then hook two of each together and only end up with two wires going to the amp???????
i gave it some thought and drew a crappy pic of it too. the alpine amp i would like says 2 ohms 75w x 4 is this how i would go about wireing that or would all 4 speakers need to be 2 ohms thanks. \
i may be misunderstanding you but here it is. Application and speaker useage: just normal car audio.
Copms or coaxial: not sure what that is but the amp im getting is MRP-F300 its alpine.
Front or Rear: i have two in the front doors and two in the rear deck. I guess my ? is how do i get 2 ohms 75w x 4 with that amp if all the speakers i have are 4 ohm. hope this helps thanks
Don't mean to be rude but if you need to ask such a simply question as this, I feel it's in your best interest to find or pay someone to do this for you
It will be loader @ 4ohms as each speaker will have 50w each if you connect the speakers in parrel to give 2ohms you 75w x4 giving you 37w per speaker and leaving 2 ch spare. Most amps won't run 2 ohm when bridged check your specs I think their, 50w x4@4ohm 75w x4@2ohm 100w x2@4ohm If you want it to be loader then that you have 2 options 1. Get 4 off 2 ohm speakers. 2. Get a bigger amp and run current speakers at 4ohm.
and John is right---> Each channel will give each speaker 50w each. Also, having more than one speaker on a channel lowers the sensitivity of the the circuit (bad). By putting one speaker on one channel each will get the best performance from both your amp and your speakers.
