MISCELLANEOUS / CUSTOM WIRING SOLUTIONS
POWERING TWO SPEAKERS WITH A SINGLE AMPLIFIER CHANNEL
IN SOME CASES, THERE MIGHT BE A NEED TO
DRIVE TWO SPEAKERS WITH A SINGLE
AMPLIFIER CHANNEL. THIS CONFIGURATION IS
POSSIBLE PROVIDING THAT A 4 OHM LOAD IS
MAINTAINED AT THE AMPLIFIER OUTPUT.
TO THE RIGHT ARE EXAMPLES OF BOTH
PARALLEL AND SERIES WIRING APPLICATIONS
FOR PROPER IMPEDANCE MATCHING. NOTE
THE WAY THAT WHILE PARALLEL WIRING
DIVIDES EACH SPEAKERS IMPEDANCE, SERIES
WIRING ADDS EACH SPEAKER IMPEDANCE
TOGETHER.
UTILIZING A MULTI-INPUT SWITCH WITH A STOCK SOURCE UNIT
IN ORDER TO UTILIZE A LOW-LEVEL AFTERMARKET INPUT SWITCH, IT’S NECESSARY TO CONVERT THE
STOCK HIGH-LEVEL OUTPUTS TO LOW-LEVEL BEFORE THE INPUT SWITCH ITSELF. THE DIAGRAM BELOW
SHOWS AN EXAMPLE OF THIS KIND OF SWITCHED INPUT.
