B once explained this in good detail but i cant remember all of it but basically each coil will still have its own resistance & ur not really fooling the amp thinking its seeing x amt of load - so its not rec u do that .......
lets say the amp is 1500rms @ 1 ohm, each 4 ohm coil is going to see approximately 375 rms, so the first 2 subs will be seeing a total of 750 rms while the third one will be seeing only 375... not necessarily bad for the amp but you might be over powering the first two subs, whats the setup?....... and .8 is close enough to 1, it should be alright, unless its bad equipment, you should get your hands on a DMM
thats one mess of a mix lol.. i'd either pick a set you like.. or sell all of them and buy something else.. after box rise though that 0.8 would go up so you'd be seeing 1ohm or more depending. As long as the ohm load is close your fine..
yes Rovin is correct, I have explained this phenominal call a voltage / current divider before... little bit of electronic circuit analysis for you people... lol
in a nut shell what Troy stratford is saying!!!
the last sub on the circuit will have the least amount of voltage and current to work with, so it will get less power from the amplifier. not good! espically beein in the same enclousure as the others...
just do a search on google on current divider and voltage divider, and kirkoff voltage rules... I already had many of classes in college, so go learn something...
lol this is just messed up pick 1 sub and go with it then maybe seel the 2 others and buy one of the other ones best answer there
but ya b i had that electrical wiring circuit class to lol and then i took it in hs also but in car audio i dont know where it all applies most of the time
I'm sorry. I just don't see the connection yet. And as for the ohm load: total of five 4ohm voice coils = how many ohms? I guessed 0.8, but who know the answer for sure?
Most people just dont mix different sizes and types b/c one will over power the others (smaller ones) and render it basically useless (from what I understand). As for your ohm load, I think you should be good but thats going on what they ^ said...
