  • Page 7 Parallel—Two Speakers (dual 4 ohm voice coils) Two dual 4 ohm voice coil woofers with voice coils in parallel and the two woofers in parallel results in a 1 ohm load to the amplifier. 1. Connect the speaker in parallel by connecting the four positive (+) terminals together and the four negative (-) terminals together.
  • Page 8 Parallel—One Speaker (dual 4 ohm voice coils) One dual 4 ohm voice coil woofer with voice coils in parallel results in a 2 ohm load to the amplifier. 1. Connect the speaker in parallel by connecting the two positive (+) terminals together and the two negative (-) terminals together.
  • Page 9 Series-Parallel—Two Speakers (dual 2 ohm voice coils) Note: Verify and ensure that the woofer wiring is connected as shown with the negative connection from the first woofer coil connected to the positive connection of the second woofer coil. Two dual 2 ohm voice coil woofers with voice coils in series and then parallel the two series woofers results in a 2 ohm load to the amplifier.
  • Page 10 Series-Parallel—Three Speakers (dual 4 ohm voice coils) Note: Verify and ensure that the woofer wiring is connected as shown with the negative connection from the first woofer coil connected to the positive connection of the second woofer coil. Three dual 4 ohm voice coil woofer with voice coils of each woofer wired in series and then parallel the three woofers for a resulting 2.67 ohm load to the amplifier.
  • Page 11 Series—One Speaker (dual 2 ohm voice coils) One dual 2 ohm voice coil woofer with voice coils in connected in series results in a 4 ohm load to the amplifier. 1. Connect the woofer in series by connecting the negative (-) of one terminal to the positive (+) terminal of the other coil.
  • Page 12 Series-Parallel—Four Speakers (dual 4 ohm voice coils) Note: Verify and ensure that the woofer wiring is connected as shown with the negative connection from the first woofer coil connected to the positive connection of the second woofer coil. Four dual 4 ohm voice coil woofers should be wired with the voice coils on each woofer in series and then parallel the four woofers for a resulting 2 ohm load to the amplifier.
  • Page 13 Series-Parallel—Four Speakers (dual 2 ohm voice coils) Note: Verify and ensure that the woofer wiring is connected as shown with the negative connection from the first woofer coil connected to the positive connection of the second woofer coil. Four dual 2 ohm voice coil woofers should be wired with the voice coils on each woofer in series and then parallel the four woofers for a resulting 1 ohm load to the amplifier.
