A friend and I are wiring up a 1988 Chevy School Bus with it's first sound system. We were wondering whether it's possible to power 8 Pioneer 8'' (180 watt max) speakers and 1 Xplod 12"subwoofer (1300 watt max) through 1 Xplod 1200 watt, 2- Channel amplifier?
Asuming the 8s are 4ohms each; wire two in series and that gives you 8ohms then two more in series then you put those together in parallel and it gives you a 4ohm load. repeat with other four for the other side. you should then be able to bridge the sub
series; posative of one speaker to negative of other speaker and that doubles your ohms
parallel; posative to posative negative to negative and that cuts the ohms in half
Hi,
Honestly I would say no. The wattage is just too much for the amp, I would recommend 1 amp for the sub, and one for the 8' speakers.
