Holy Ohmload Batman!

[OoMesKoO 10+ year member]

Does anyone know how i would go about hooking up 8... 8 ohm SVC drivers? I got a killer deal on 8 10" rfp3810 Fosgate He2s.... guy only wants 180 bucks for all 8. lol. But.... what kind of ohm load can i get from them puppies? There also only 200w rms..... but it should sound pretty good. Plus look bad as all hell. If it doesnt work out..... maybe ill just go with 2 12" Type Rs.

if you paralelled all 8 you would have a 1 ohm load

you can wire them a few different ways, buts its going to be a mess //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

damn. 8 10"s?........80" of cone area FTW!

um, MUCH more than 80" of cone area...

So all 8 will give me a 1 ohm load? Figure... at 200W rms a piece... can i do it with one Hifonics BX1500D? 1600W for all 8...... 1500w @1 ohm for the BX1500D FTW???

I'm hoping you're basing this on the actual cone size of these drivers...otherwise it would be a bit ironic that you correct his math and mess up yourself...

3.14 * 9.6 * 8 = 241.152 //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif

[ Pi(r^2) ] # of drivers

[~3.14 (5^2) ] 8

[ 78.54 ] 8

pi * radius ^ 2 is the formula for the area of a circle.

don't you mean diameter?

 

[squeak12 10+ year member]

No, he means radius.

0..
