Default line array wiring info.

if one were going to try his luck at a line array of 6ea. 8" full range speakers into two towers equaling 12 total 8's and 1ea. "super tweeter" in each enclosure how shold they be wired to give me a total ohm rating of 4-8 ohm's the drivers are rated at 8ohms and the tweeters are at 8ohm too. So the picture would appear like this.....mmmtmmm or mmmmmmt any help would be of great need.

For the 8 inch drivers, 6 per cabinet, wire two sets of 3 drivers in parallel. Then wire these two sets in series. This will give you about 6 ohms total.

Not sure if what I said was clear. This may be a better way to say it.

Wire 3 drivers in parallel. Then wire the other 3 in parallel. Now wire these two sets in series.
