In-wall line array wiring question


Putting together some line array in-wall speakers. Using nine 8ohm speakers total for L/C/R, 3 per array. Having a dilema figuring the best way to wire these without dropping to a 2ohm load, or causing an imbalance with a 2P/1S wiring. 4 speakers would be great for wiring but causes the array to be too tall for my 10ft ceiling.

Any ideas?

I was actually looking at the XTI 1002 . I could run it normally, running two of the arrays @2ohms gives me 700 watts ch. That should be plenty per array. I’ll buy a second to run the center array. The only thing I lose is the musicality of an audiophile amp. My Coda will handle 2ohm loads but I don’t want to force it to stay there; wouldn’t be good long term.

If you run 2 in series and 1 in parallel with them you should be at about 5.6 ohms.

True, but that causes one speaker to get more power than the other two and produce lobing…
