I have 3 different sets of speakers, the first set is 2- 8 Ohm speakers; the second set is 2- 6 Ohm speakers; the third set is 2- 4 Ohm speakers; My stereo says it has a speaker impedance of 6~ 16 Ohm speakers.can i use all 3 sets of speakers? I know that all the Ohms from the speakers added together is over 16, but does it mean i can have 16 Ohms on the left and 16Ohms on the right? or does it mean i can have 16 Ohms total? or does it mean that i can have 6 different speakers with each speaker 16 or less Ohms? If u could tell me that would be great! thanks
no it is not how it works, it is about resistance againt the amp, but hooking up more you will heat up your amp faster, and will bure it out you could hook them all up, but I would not run them all together
The syntax, grammar are precisely the comparable. i'd learn the two to Italian and Spanish, very comparable to a minimum of one yet another. If a Mandarin speaker strikes to stay in a position the place each and every person speaks Cantonese, the guy would be waiting to appreciate the easy Cantonese in approximately 3-6 months, and would have a on a daily basis verbal substitute in some twelve months if he study the dialect.
The impedance of the speaker varies with the frequency and the power applied therefore you are given the effective impedance range for the speaker. The rating of your amp is designed for 6 to 16 ohm impedance. if you go below that rating you risk over heating the amp as you are effectively shorting out the output of the amp. The only set that are close to your amp are the 2-8 ohm. you could hook the lesser speakers in series to match the impedance but it is not good for the sound to mismatch speakers of different efficiencies , they will sound like crap.
Sounds like you want to hook these speakers up all at once. You can hook up any two of your speakers in series but not three. When you hook up in series you add the impedances and three ( 8 + 6 + 4) would be 18 ohms which is outside the recommeded range. Also, you have to understand that since the impedance of the speakers are different, when you hook up the speakers together in series the power distribution to the speakers will be uneven. The lower impedance speaker will get more of the power and may sound louder. To answer your other question, speaker impedance of 6-16 ohms is per channel. That means you can have as many speakers as you want as long as the total impedance per channel is between 6 and 16 ohms. However, this does not mean you hook up two speakers and get twice as much sound or hook up four and get four times. What happens is the power gets divided up between the speakers so you might have four speakers but the power gets divided up four ways. I hope that answers your questions.
You can safely use all the speakers if your stereo is in fact a 2 channel system and has built in to it an A,B,A+Bspeaker selector control. If so, then connect the: A- 8 Ohm speakers to the A terminals on the back of your stereo. B-Connect the + of one 6 Ohm speaker to the + of the left channel of the B terminal on your stereo.Connect the - of that speaker to the + of one of your 4 Ohm speakers and the - of that speaker to the left - terminal of the Bspeaker output of the stereo. C- Repeat the same hookup using the last two speakers to the right B channel of your stereo. Using this combination,you are still within the receivers capabilities even when you choose the A + B speaker mode. Keep the following in mind: A- The power output cannot be greater than that of any one of the speakers. B- The above setup applies only to a true TWO channel amplifier and NOT to a Surround Sound system! Enjoy X-MAN
