Default Connecting both channels of an amp

(conrad) wrote in message . com...
Is it possible to connect both channels of an amp separtely to a dual
voice coil subwoofer..what I mean is to connect the left channel to
one coil and the right channel to the other voice coil....the feed
signal will be comming off the LFE output of a home theater receiver?


Dual voice coil subwoofers have two coils so that you can connect
the left channel to one and the right channel to the other instead of
having to have two different sub-woofers in two different cabinets.
Of course you have to come up with some kind of cross-over (two,
actually, one for each channel) that sends the very low frequencies to
one of the dual voice coils and everything above those frequencies to
your regular stereo speaker for that channel (where the speaker's
internal crossover further divides things for its internal drivers).
