Because then the speaker would be too low too push along.

Pedantic

LOL I know what Nigel meant, I use the quote that way round myself on occasion, for humour value

If I have 3 drivers rated at 8ohms each, is there a way to wire them up so the ohm load showing on the amp is near to 4 ohms ir will it be closer to 2 ohms???

Dont know if it s possible but:
2 in series one in paraell. Comes to about 5.6666

Thanks for that Callum. Bit more than 4ohm but will need to do some working out.

It is 2.6 ohms

Yeah, I know that already. Should of put that. lol.

Was looking at something close to 2 ohm or 4 ohm but I dont think it can be done now with just 3 drivers. Hmm. Need to have a think.

Thanks for our help though.

Speaker impedances.
Add the speaker impedances if the yare in series.

If in parallel it is the reciprocal of the sum of the reciprocals !

1/Z = 1/sp1 + 1/sp2 etc etc
