largo Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 OK, I'm looking for some simple wiring diagram for the following (actually for my house not a cab); I have 4 x 8 ohm ceiling speakers each being wired back to a speaker faceplate, so 4 inputs each to a separate speaker. I have a 2 x 40w amp How do I wire these from the amp to get a 4 ohm load across each pair? Is it wires from speaker 1&2 into output1 and 3&4 into output2? Pretty sure that's parallel wiring !!! I just want to double check. I used to know this stuff, but it's been so long. Cheers y'all ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
machinehead Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 Yep, two 8ohm speakers in parallel will give you 4 ohms. Just make sure they are all connected in the correct and same polarity. Frank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
