4 ohm 8 ohm


Hello,

I have a ASL aq1003-dt that is running a pair of 4 ohm JM Reynaud twins (mk2). I had someone suggest the other day that I hook the speakers up at 8 ohms (I have 4, 6, and 8 ohm outputs on my amp) instead of the speaker rating of 4 ohms. Why would I do this? I was commenting on how I wasn't getting enough sound of the speakers and was considering upgrading when this was suggested. What do you guys think? -Todd

Use the 4 ohm tap. You run the risk of damaging your speakers otherwise. You can run 8 ohm speakers on the 4 ohm tap without any danger. They just won't play as loud.
