How do you connect 2 6 ohm speakers to an 8 ohm amplifier?
You can, but its power output will be a bit higher than its 8 ohm rating.
Is it safe to connect a 4 speakers to a 4 ohm amp?
First, you must know: There is no 4 ohm amplifier. All audio amplifiers have an output impedance of smaller than 0.5 ohms. So you use impedance bridging. No problem to connect the 0.5 ohm output to your 4 ohm loudspeaker. Scroll down to related links and look at "Impedance bridging - Wikipedia".
Can you use 10 ohm speakers with a 4-8 ohm receiver?
You can use your so called "4 to 8 Ohm's output" amplifier for your 10 ohms loudspeaker. All amplifiers have an output impedance of less than 0.5 ohms. You use impedance bridging when you connect the 10 ohm's loudspeaker. The "4 to 8 Ohm's output" means only that a 4 to 8 ohm loudspeaker will be adequate and not that the output impedance is 4 to 8 ohms! Scroll down to related links and look at "Impedance bridging - Wikipedia".
What you need to connect two 8 ohm speakers to your HD TV?
everything
How do you use 16 ohm monitor speakers with an 8 ohm powered mixer?
Just use it like an 8 ohm speaker or else connect two 16 ohm speakers in parallel to form an 8 ohm load. Parallel is positive to positive and negative to negative.
Can I connect two 2 ohm speakers to the front channels of my amp and then connect 2 4 ohm speakers to the rear channels of my 4 channel amp?
This depends on your amplifier's specifications. i would recommend looking in the amplifier's service manual to avoid disapointment or damage to your amplifier or speakers.
If you replace a 4 ohm speaker with an 8 ohm speaker can the amplifier blow the speaker?
A1: The output impedance of a power amplifier is always less than 0.1 ohms. There are no 4 ohm amplifiers on the market! A2: I actually just bought a new car radio/CD player that specifically shows 4 ohm speakers on the sticker. It is designed to work optimally with 4 ohm speakers. If you use 8 ohm instead, it will work, but you will not get the full power output that is specified. The amp can only kick out so much voltage and so much amperage - if it is designed for 4 ohm speakers, and 200 watts (stereo, so 100 watts per speaker), it can supply 20 volts (P = V^2 / R). If you used 8 ohm speakers to this amplifier, each speaker would only get 50 watts powered at full output voltage. Alternatively, if it is designed for 8 ohm speakers and 100 watts per speaker, it can provide 40 volts. If you used 4 ohm speakers instead, each speaker could be given 200 watts at 40 volts, resulting in severe overheating and damage to the amplifier.
Can you connect a 8 ohm speaker for a amp designed for a 4 ohm load?
You can, but the available power will only be about half of rated, and the frequency response will be slightly different. Better would be to connect two 8 ohm speakers in parallel, making an equivalent 4 ohm speaker.
How do you connect 200 ohm output impedance to 8 kilo ohm input?
Here is the description-I have an Alesis DEQ230 Graphic EQ, where the audio output impedance is 220 Ohm. I want to connect it to my Logitech Z5500 speaker, where the input impedance is 8 KOhmSo my question is- can I connect them directly with the 2x 1/4 mono male jack to 3.5mm stereo female jack
Do the ohms on speakers have to match the ohms of the amp?
In fact there is no "8 ohm output" on an audio power amplifier and no Zout = Zin. In audio technology voltage bridging is the normal connection method where Zout < Zin. Read the link: "8 Ohm Output" and "150 Ohm Input" - What is that?
Can I safely run 4 x 4ohm speakers with an 8 ohm rated amplifier?
Not really. The only possible configurations of four 4 ohm speakers is 1 ohm, 4 ohms, and 16 ohms. This will not match an 8 ohm rated amplifier. It will work, but you will not achieve rated power output, and you run the risk of damaging the amplifier.
Can I connect two 4 ohm speakers and a 8 ohm speaker?
I depends on "how" you are connecting them. If you connected the 4 ohm speakers in series (positive terminal of one to the negative terminal of the other). This will leave a negative terminal of one unconnected and a positive terminal of the other unconnected. then connect them in parallel (the unconnected positive terminal of the 4 ohm speakers to the positive terminal of the 8 ohm speaker and the unconnected negative terminal of the other 4 ohm speaker to the negative terminal of the 8 ohm speaker. This will produce an overall 4 ohm load for 1 channel (assuming you are connecting to a stereo) Or if you are connecting to a stereo with two 8 ohm outputs. Connect the 8 ohm to one channel then connect the above mentioned series connected 4 ohm speakers to the other channel for a total load of 8 ohms on both channels. Parallel connections will equal less than the individual speaker load. The formula for this is: R X R/R + R where R is ohms for each speaker ie. Two 8 ohm speakers in parallel would be 8 x 8 (64)/ 8 + 8 (16) which is 4 ohms. Series connections you just add them together ie. Two 8 ohm speakers in series would be 8 + 8 or 16 ohms. FYI. If you measure the speakers with an ohmmeter it will be less than what it says on the speakers. Speakers are measured in "impedance" which takes into account "reactance". The resistance of the speaker coil will change slightly with different frequencies applied so an 8 ohm speaker may read as 5-7 ohms (more or less) with an ohmmeter. A 4 ohm may read as low as 2.5 ohms on the same meter. Some output transformers can handle half the ohms but it is always safer, as a general rule, to go "up" in speaker impedance without any damage. It's not wise to vary any with a system with solid state (transistor or IC) output coupling. Hope I didn't get too technical. There is lots of good info on the internet about speaker configurations.
