Posted May 31, 201015 yr I'm planning on running a pair of 100.4s to power my three-way front stage, one for tweeters and midrange, and one bridged for midbass duties. The drivers I've selected are all 8ohm. What kind of power should I expect from them running at 8ohm in this configuration?
May 31, 201015 yr Author About half of 4 ohm.What drivers? What vehicle?It's a 2003 Jetta GLI, planning on going with Peerless Exclusives 7 inchers in the doors, Peerless 3 inch widebands and Scanspeak Illuminators for tweets, the midranges and tweets will be in a-pillar or dash pods depending on how my experiments with soundstaging turn out.
May 31, 201015 yr Author Sounds like a nice set up.What processing?Most likely the JBL MS-8, currently running an Eclipse CD5030 as a source and I'm planning on a pair of SAZ-1000Ds pushing a pair of Exodus Audio Shiva-X2s for subwoofery. I'm still debating on running rear fill and center channel, that might be more experimentation to come later.
May 31, 201015 yr I've used them on 8 ohm speakers before - plenty of power for most drivers out there
May 31, 201015 yr Author I've used them on 8 ohm speakers before - plenty of power for most drivers out there That's what I was thinking, most of the time they probably wouldn't be seeing significant power anyway from music. How do you think my stock electrical will handle that setup? I've got a 120 amp alternator, and I'm planning on running at least one additional battery.
