Hi,
I'm planning to build some speakers using two 5.25" woofers and a dome tweeter in each box. The woofers I have are 8 ohms, and I have two types of tweeters to choose from. One pair are 6 ohm, the other are 8 ohm.
My question is about wiring the two woofers to the crossover.
What's the best way to connect the woofers if I want the system impedance to be 8 ohms? In series the impedance doubles, in parallel it's cut in half, correct? Should I have bought 4 ohm woofers and then connect them in series? Is there a way to do it with 8 ohm woofers?
The woofers are Peerless Vline BC14WG79-08.
Should I use the 8 ohm or the 6 ohm tweeters, or does it matter? The 6 ohm are the better drivers, they are Vifa D25AG77-06. The 8 ohm are Vifa D19TD-05-08.
Any help or advice is appreciated.
Thanks.
