[QUOTE="NSTALN, post: 8850039, member: 588169"] Below are 2 diagrams...each representing an option for my center channel build. Option A or Option B. Option A is pretty straight-forward...(4) 3.5inch drivers, each pair run in series (for 8ohm load), then paralleled presenting a 4ohm load to the crossover. A single Tweeter used. Option B utilizes (2) component sets. The crossovers are wired in series to present an 8ohm load to the amplifier. This option uses (2) 5inch drivers, (2) 3.5inch drivers, and a single tweeter and (2) XO's. My question for Option B is: Do I leave the tweeter connection for XOB (represented by '?') disconnected or should I add a 4ohm resistor to keep the impedance happy/balanced? Do either of these options present any issues/problems? All drivers and XO's are Infinity Kappa Perfect. This will be used for my home theater. Pardon my crude diagram. Thanks!
