Members dan j Posted August 21, 2003 Members Share Posted August 21, 2003 2 Speakers 200 W 8 ohms AMP will put out 250 W per channel at 4 ohms. Will daisy chaining them get the job done? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes,no,maybe. What's the job? You want to daisy-chain them on one side of the amp,feeding them 125 watts each? Why not run one on each channel? What is your amp's rating/channel at 8 ohms?

Members dan j Posted August 22, 2003 Author Members Share Posted August 22, 2003 Ahhhh, no...I don't want to give them 125 W each, that of course would be pointless. Bridge mode sounds OK to look at it but then I'd be going down to 4 ohms and that would most likely put the amp into protection. Amplifier class A / B Coninuous Average Power @ 8 Ohms BCD (Watts) 170 (x2) Coninuous Average Power @ 4 Ohms BCD (Watts) 250 (x2) Coninuous Average Power @ 2 Ohms BCD (Watts) NA Continuous Average Power Bridged BCD (Watts) 525 @ 8 Ohms Burst Average Power @ 8 Ohms BCD (Watts) 220 (x2) Burst Average Power @ 4 Ohms BCD (Watts) 425 (x2) Burst Average Power @ 2 Ohms BCD (Watts) NA Burst Average Power Bridged BCD (Watts) 850 @ 8 Ohms BTW, I do not use this amp at the present time. I was just wondering if I could and if I can't, I'd like to sell it. Sounds to me like it is useless for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need to have an am that will do atleast 400W @ 4ohms, or 800W if you want another 3dB of headroom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don't need all that volume,you are fine underpowering a speaker. Just don't let the amp clip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
