Should i hook my speakers up series or parallel?
Well, you have a few options. When you hook the speakers up in series, you add the resistance, so you can connect two sets of speakers up in series and properly load the amplifier. It is vital to make certain that you have the same polarity for each speaker, otherwise you will have phase problems with the speakers (but that is kind of nit picking, as unless you have precisely matched speakers you are going to have some audio “smear”). Adding the third set of speakers could be done by wiring one set of speakers in parallel (which results in 4 ohms equivalent resistance) and the third set in series gives you 12 ohms. But, you are going to force those two sets of speakers to be dissipating more power than the 8 ohm speakers. Unless you have disparate efficiencies between the speakers, they will not be close to the same volume. It will not hurt your amplifier to do so however, so playing around with it is fine. Just do not put them all in parallel, as this would damage your amplifier and/o
