i have a 2 channel amp and it says it puts out 320 watts at 1 ohm x2 so if i have 4 speakers rated at 80 watts a piece can i just put them on 1 of the amps channels and it will put out the power they need is that how it works and its the other 320 watts on the other channel not used please help

4 4ohm in parallel would give you a 1 ohm load

run anywhere from 1 to 4 on each channel.

yea i have 4 4 ohm speakers and they are 80 rms a piece but the amp a have is 320x2 so im wonding if i put all the speakers on 1 channel would it give them 320 watts or 640

320 x 2 at 1 ohm

If you have 4 run 2 on each channel at 2 ohm

What amp? T300.2?

im using an old amp crossfire cfa 30 hc

2 ohm

High Power- 210 watts x 2

High Current- 120watts x 2

yea that could work out i never thought of wireing them like that i just always thought of doing all 4 together yea u can do 2 seperate i never thought of that

what would happen if i wanted to add another pair of speakers it would have to be .5 ohm right this amp is .5 ohm stable too

no if i add more speakers it would be liek this right 1 ohm on each channel idk these 2 channel things confuse me

Wait, are these subs?

3 would be 1.34 and 4 would be 1, and 5 would be .5

so if i wire it like this

if im going to set my gains with a dmm would it just be 2ohm x 420 or do you have to do somthing different because its 2ohms x 2

Yes you would have 2ohm left and 2 ohm right.

Do not use a DMM to set gains, especially on your highs. Use your ears. Slowly turn up the gain until it sounds like shit then turn it down until it doesn't. Simple.

i should use the dmm for the subs right i heard your supose to take the ohm load multiply it buy the rms watts then find the square root and thats the volt u set it at
