QuestionI have been assembling a motley assortment of audio components and I
would love to hook together in a sound system that sounds at least
reasonably good. Unfortunately I have absolutely no idea what I am doing (or
if it even can be done) so I would really appreciate any advice and or
suggestions. This system would be oriented around blasted house and
dubstep music at ungodly volumes (in case that is at all relevant)
Right now I have:
2 pioneer CS-A5000 RMS 40W max 120W into 6.3 ohms
1 altec lansing ACS340 computer subwoofer (has its own amp and power
supply)
2 optimus STS-100 RMS 50W max 100W into 8 ohms
1 RP-9520 boombox speaker ?W into 6 ohms
2 Sony MHC-EC55 boombox speakers 65w into 6 ohms
The inputs for all of these are just speaker wire except for the sub which has
an audio cable protruding from the back.
Would it be possible to use combinations of series and parallel wiring to
compensate for the impedance and power differences? And what kind of
receiver should I get?
Is there anything else I should keep in mind while creating this system?
AnswerI lost track of what you are wanting to do but here is a guiding light.
One speaker per amplifier output. No paralleling of speaker to one amp.
You cannot parallel amplifiers; they must be connected to only on speaker.
You cannot mix speaker systems.
If you want to have the same audio program fed to other amps it must be done at the low level; i. e. from the rca preamp out to the low level rca input of the next amp.
Okee Dokee?
