[QUOTE="SkwurlyFab, post: 1834324, member: 567256"] OK they're defnitly louder. I dunno If i'd say louder or just more piercing, I mean my ****ing ears are ringing right now, and the tweeters are set at 0db not +3db on the crossovers. But the speakers pop a little at high volume and don't sound clear in the vocals so I gotta reset the gains and I'm not sure if I have the formula right. Before they were set to 17.3 volts because it was a 4 ohm load getting 75 watts. voltage= square root (4x75). But now that they're bridged to 150watts a piece, I'm kinda confused on how to get the voltage rating. The speakers are wired in parallel (+ to + and - to - right?). So because they're bridged is the amp still seeing a 4 ohm load? Or an 8 ohm load? With the 4 ohm load I get V=24.5. With an 8 ohm load I get V= 34.6. Any help is appreciated. Thanks:) [/QUOTE]
