hey all....
i have a set of Sony SAVA-10's (2 Front, 2 Rear), so they are 4's... I'm building an amplifier (tube amp) and want to at least drive the front set of speakers, but i'm not sure of their ohm rating... how would i find it? sony seams to be rather proprietary on their parts, the reason i'm doing this all in the first place is because the amp in the speakers died due to lightning (yes, its jsut the amp, and the parts are proprietary as far as i can figure, unless anyone has seen a SSD Amp IC that's sony # is 17891... no luck here...) but they would make really great speakers if i could only figure out what their ohm raiting is, do i just take my ohm meter and connect to the + and - on the speaker? (new to this) 🙂 there is a built in LCD display with chip unit on there for volume control, i may try to integrate that into my amp, but i'd like to just get the speakers to work first 🙂
thanks guys 🙂

Yes - just use an ohm-meter.
An 8 ohm impedance louspeaker will measure around 6R d.c.
An 4 ohm impedance louspeaker will measure around 3R d.c.
