3886 an a 16 ohm load - Click HERE for Original Thread

How do chip amps, the 3886 specifically, handle a 16 ohm load? Any problems that this could cause?

I have very little electronics knowledge so please be gentle.

No problems at all... Just less power than driving lower loads...

...and less distortion... well, at least in theory

This would be an oportunity to run your amp with a highish supply voltage. This way you could get the best power from your load and the chip won't feel too bad about it.

Thanks for the replys.

Now I just need to get the guts to try and make one.
