  • Wiring in Series is used more in a home speaker design than in a automotive project.. In general the impedance to shoot for in that application is 8 ohms, you can wire two 4 ohm speakers in series to get that 8 ohm circuit. Unlike parallel, wiring in series do not increase the power handling of the circuit, it remains the same..

    In series you simply add the impedance's of the speakers together.

  • Sorry, you can't put two 8 ohm speakers together to get 8 ohms.. That is if they are the same type of speaker. Meaning that if you wire two 8 ohm woofers together you can only get 16 ohms, or 4 ohms. this is dependent on wiring in series for 16 ohms, or in parallel for a 4 ohm load.

    Now if it is a woofer and tweeter, then you combine together with a 8 ohm crossover, this will give you a 8 ohm nominal circuit.

  • You wire in parallel, that will double the power each speaker can handle.

  • could you please tell me is there a wiring method of linking 2 8ohm speakers that gives an 8ohm cab load. many thanks. leon.

  • how do i wire 2 voice speakers in other to get more power email me alexisanselm@hotmail.com

  • Lol at the start its so obviose he's reading lol

  • why the videos importants it´s in english

    los quiero en español

  • @troyluciano12 He always does that actually.I do, too. It's natural.

  • so series wiring increases the oHms, why would i want to do this? if i series wired two 4 Ohm subwoofers, this would decrease theyre power?

  • or connect the positive to one and connect the negetive from that speaker to the positive of the next speaker and hook the ground from#2 to the ground of the stereo that guy must sell speaker cables
