equal loads on stereo amp?
How important is for a stereo amp to see equal loads on both it's
channels? The reason I'm asking I have a Carver tfm35 and two passive subwoofers..one of them is rated at 4 ohms and the other at 8...is it safely possible? |

equal loads on stereo amp?
It is safe for the amplifier providing your amplifier can handle loads of
less than 4 ohms, since I am assuming you are going to have other speakers at the same time. But, the sound pressure from each will be very different! They will never balance to each other. You may as well use one mono type subwoofer. This would mean you will require an amplifier to run the sub with a mono sub output of the receiver, or source amplifier to drive it. If your amplifier sees a load that is less than its rated impedance, you will be soon sending it out to have the output stage rebuilt. This is an expensive repair that you will not be able to do yourself, unless properly trained and equipped to do so. -- Greetings, Jerry Greenberg GLG Technologies GLG ========================================= WebPage http://www.zoom-one.com Electronics http://www.zoom-one.com/electron.htm ========================================= "conrad" wrote in message m...

The loads don't have to be identical, but the question that begs to be asked is why do you feel the need for more than one subwoofer?

It's probably a bass level issue. Everyone has a different idea of what it should be. I recall a demonstration using several very large subwoofers. It was very intense -- they could interfere with your breathing. Musically, there was no need to do this, but it was fun for a few minutes. I've used subwoofers that were arguably a bit too large for the room, but we could get enough level to key the flight response of the viewers during the chase scene. At those levels the viewer becomes physically involved with the movie. ----------------------------------------------------------- spam: wordgame:123(abc):14 9 20 5 2 9 18 4 at 22 15 9 3 5 14 5 20 dot 3 15 13 (Barry Mann) [sorry about the puzzle, spammers are ruining my mailbox] ----------------------------------------------------------- |

It was very intense -- they could interfere with your breathing. Musically, there was no need to do this, but it was fun for a few minutes. I've used subwoofers that were arguably a bit too large for the room, but we could get enough level to key the flight response of the viewers during the chase scene. At those levels the viewer becomes physically involved with the movie. ----------------------------------------------------------- spam: wordgame:123(abc):14 9 20 5 2 9 18 4 at 22 15 9 3 5 14 5 20 dot 3 15 13 (Barry Mann) [sorry about the puzzle, spammers are ruining my mailbox] ----------------------------------------------------------- Just don't get the level up enough to trigger the "brown" response. That's probably a little more physical involvement than the viewer would care for. :-) |

Now, my mocho associates are much farther down the hard of hearing curve. I also wonder what is happening to all those ears clamped in headphones that I can hear across the isle in busses and trains. ----------------------------------------------------------- spam: wordgame:123(abc):14 9 20 5 2 9 18 4 at 22 15 9 3 5 14 5 20 dot 3 15 13 (Barry Mann) [sorry about the puzzle, spammers are ruining my mailbox] ----------------------------------------------------------- |

That's probably a little more physical involvement than the viewer would care for. :-) But think of the bragging rights if your system could do that. Call in an unknowing friend and get him/her ... involved. "Loud" is a moving target and tends to be equated with distortion (for untrained listeners). I've been called in to diagnose systems that "can't play loud enough". In one case, as I entered the room, the din was so loud that everyone was hoarse from attempting to talk over the sound (which was remarkably clean, considering that it was a simple home system driven to the limit). The customer said, "see, that's all the louder it gets." I explained that, without getting into much more expensive commercial equipment, this the best he could do and I exited as fast as I could. ----------------------------------------------------------- spam: wordgame:123(abc):14 9 20 5 2 9 18 4 at 22 15 9 3 5 14 5 20 dot 3 15 13 (Barry Mann) [sorry about the puzzle, spammers are ruining my mailbox] ----------------------------------------------------------- |

equal loads on stereo amp?
I thank everyone for their input...My system is not "loud"..both
subwoofers exaggerate the low frenquencies to the point where you feel it in your chest but not your ears..to the point where certain parts of the house start to vibrate..to the point where a pot light will pop out of the ceiling..maybe I'm crazy..but I think I talk for a lot of us here..thanks guys.. |
