2ohm

[rulezzz]

listen everyone i want to bridge tda1514a and use 4 ohm load(2ohm on each chip) and use around +/-16 volts (12-0-12 transformer) what do u think of this?

that should work ok but you will need a fairly big transformer (va rating) and I would use about 4700uF caps on that as a minimum.

i didn't found any 12-0-12 powerful transformers so i think of connecting two toroidal 12v and 70 VA transformers together ,what do you think of this.
Another question with 2ohm will the sound quality of output would be the same as with 4 ohm .If somebody tried that with another amp please write.

If the two transformers are identical then you should be ok to connect them in parallel, watch your phasing of the windings though !.Sound quality should not suffer but at the end of the day its subjective, one mans meat'a another mans poisen.

2 ohm load

Distortion always increases as load impedence is reduced. You'll probably have to guess by how much.
