8s and 12s ?

Recommended Posts

i know were no supposed to, but

1.these proto 8s i have right now are simply amazing.

2. the rl-p 12 gets noticeably lower than the 8s.

the orion 2500d that will arrive shortly is probably dangerous for either the 12 or the pair of 8s, but if i ran all 3 could it work, the 8s giveing me that awesome 'snappy' flavor, and the 12 that 'evil' low it does so well? all shareing 2500wrms? all sealed? i have read we cant mix sub sizes but what the hell, ive been told alot of things in my life and i never listened to it then? im gonna try it,

how do i configure (wire) (2) 6 ohm subs and (1) dual 4 ohm sub to get the best from an orion 2500D?

series parallel/paraleel...i cant even spell it, help a guy out please.

Dont do it....

Get that idea out of your head

#1. you dont mix different size subs

#2. you dont mix different impedances

#3. seal your 12 if you want it snappy

Or you could just do it anyway but i bet it will sound like complete pooh
