subwoofers?
hi i am rebulding my home speackers and i am wondering if i can put in 1200 watt 4 ome 12" subwoofers but the thing is that my reciver puts out 8 ome will this subwoofer work?
Answer:
There's a bunch of information missing... This question cannot be safely answered with the information you have provided.
What is the rated power output capacity of the Amplifier at 8 Ohms? What is it's rated output at 4 Ohms? Your problem, is can it do 2 Ohms, stabily?
The next problem you have is underdriving your speakers, as you've now got 4800 watts of power, this has the potential to burn out the motors... Another problem... You're not specifying if that 1200 Watts is Peak, RMS, or Peak-to-Peak (Max)...
On top of this... how big is the box? What are the Thiele-Small specifications of the driver? If you take a really efficient driver and put it in too small of a box, you'll cripple it's bass output capabilities... where as if you put a not so efficient driver in a large box, you likely end up ripping the surrounds off the frame. Is it a sealed box, or ported (4th order bandpass, or something similar)? If so what are the dimensions of the existing box? Or are these new boxes you are building?
------------
To clarify from a prior answer about speaker wiring... ;)
When you run series you do not multiply by 2, you add...
Hence... four 4 Ohm drivers in Series does not become, sheesh, how would you even apply that?? Lol... Uhhhh...
