It's entirely possible to use four 70W speakers with a 150W amplifier but the method will depend on the speakers and the amplifier specification. We will assume that the amplifier will deliver up to 150W per channel, so two speakers will be used on each channel.
If the amplifier is rated to drive a 4 ohm load, then two 8 ohm speakers can be wired in parallel and connected. In this instance, take care NOT to drive the amplifier too hard. It will overdrive the speakers at about the same time that it will begin to show a distorted output. This is a condition that can easily damage speakers so be very conservative with the volume control.
If the speakers are 4 ohm speakers, they can be wired in series to provide a total impedance of 8 ohms. If the amplifier is rated to deliver 150W into 4 ohms, then the total power to the speakers will be lower than to a single speaker. The benefit is that no speaker can be over-driven and there is a good amount of headroom for safety.
You always want to buy speakers rated higher than the max RMS output of the amp. I've blown plenty of speakers in my day as soon as I turned it on.Ohms is just as important. Never connect two or more speakers in parallel. This cuts the ohms to less than half and you will blow the amp if its not designed for it . You can connect speakers in series if you like but this cuts your RMS output to less than half and also could blow the amp. One speaker per channel and keep the gain nob one level below max to be safe.Car amps 4 ohms speakers.House amps 8 ohms unless specified.That answer (above) is not much help, nor true. (I wouldn't trust someone who has blown "plenty of speakers", it sounds like a poke and hope job.) Unfortunately, the correct answer is hard to obtain because the people who sell amplifiers and speakers don't always use the RMS power rating for CONTINUOUS power when describing the components. These manufacturers know that we folks are into POWER and they usually advertise the components "PEAK" power rating. WOO HOO!But bottom line, it's easier to blow the amp with higher rated speakers because the the amp is working too hard to fill that big jug so to speak. The rule is to get an amp with about twiceas much RMS value of wattage at 8 ohms as the speakers RMS value at 8 ohms. You'll need to leave the room because your ears will be throbbing before you'd do any damage to your speakers.But yes, it's always important to follow these steps and be sure to connect your speakers and inputs (mikes, instruments, etc.) first, AND have the power level controls SET LOW, then power up, and then adjust the volumes up until you get your sound right.Connecting speakers in parallel is a whole different topic, but it LOWERS the ohms resistance and yes, it takes lesser wattage to blow them.
It depends on the application. If you have an amp that is stable in 8 ohms per channel, then 8 ohm speakers will work best. However, if you wanted multiple speakers on that channel you could use two 16 ohm speakers.
yes you can you will have to wire up the speakers in parallel because with 8ohm it gives too much resistance and the amp will produce unwanted sound i.e. low volume.
Your question doesn't fully make sense. Let me see if I can answer part of it. If your amp puts out 220 watts, the speakers should be rated for at least 220w, or they may be destroyed if you turn the amp all the way up. Watts are a measurement of power, in the case of speakers they are rated for how much power (watts) they can handle. Ohms is a different thing altogether. Ohms are a measurement of resistance to electrical flow. Amps are usually rated to work with certain impedance level speakers (4 ohm, 8ohm, 16ohm, etc.) the lower the ohms, the harder the amp works. I know it seems backwards but it isn't. each amp is different so you would have to read the amp's spec sheet to see what they reccomend. I have no idea what you are asking for with the "12 DC" thing.
If it is a subwoofer amp then set it at about 80 hz.
Your speakers will blow out. A guitar amp is not meant to handle the low register of a bass. Even on a practice amp.
In most cases, the speakers should be able to handle more watts than the amp can deliver. Doing it the other way around will blow out the speakers.
Hook your speakers up to the amp.
Yes, most likely. If your speakers are rated for 140w each then it's possible to blow them if your amp drives em at full power. If you do hook them up then find a way to limit the volume or output of your amp. Sophisticated amps and stereos have settings that allow you to do this.
Most factory speakers are any any where from 10 - 25 watts RMS. I wouldn't put factory speakers on an amp unless you want to blow them.
Yes, but the amp is too powerful and if turned up to full volume will blow the speakers.
you are exeeding the factory amp and speaker ratings... its so you dont fry the sterio or blow the speakers
Speakers can be blown if the wrong power amplifier is used and damage can be done by either overpowering or underpowering the amp. For example, if the power rating of the speaker is 300 watts capacity you will need a 300- to 600-watt amp.
Definitely make sure that the speakers you plan for the amplifier to power are strong enough to handle the amp. That means their wattage should meet or exceed that of the amp. Otherwise, the amp will blow your speakers. Also, it's good practice to use bass blockers on the front speakers. These are very inexpensive, and allow you to hear the high- and mid- frequency signals with more clarity while all the "boom" is in the back.
the amp has to be less than 3000 or it will blow the speakers at full volume., but it can be more so long as you dont turn it up full
The RCA's from the amp will be arn to the CD player, then you need to connect the speaker's wire to the output + and - of the amp, this will cause the amp to have musical power from your radio, and the speakers to have the power from the amp..-Shocker
A mono amp will not sound good with door speakers. There are to be used with subwoofers
