Usually, a car amplifiers power output increases as load decreases;
WE SUGGEST THAT YOU CHECK THE RECCOMENDATIONS BY THE AMPLIFER
MANUFACTURER AS TO THE MINUMUM IMPEDANCE THAT YOUR AMPLIFIER
CAN ACCEPT, AND NEVER GO BELOW THIS .
When using two or more speakers in your design, it is extremely important to use identical models,
installed in the same type of enclosure.
In the following page there are some different examples of connections in series, in parallel and
mixed (series/parallel) that meet most needs, both in terms of load impedance and of the maximum
sound pressure achievable.
Please, refer to the following table to make sure that the chosen configuration is supported
by your amplifier:
Use these formulas to calculate the impedance for different types of connections.
Connections in series:
Total impedance =
Ω
Sub1 +

Sub 2 +

Sub 3…
Connections in parallel:
