[QUOTE="NIHL8ION, post: 8098251, member: 653120"] Being that these are 4 ohm full range speakers you can only effectively wire them at 4 ohms stereo unless you have 2 sets of them, then you could wire them @ 2 ohm stereo - ie: 2 together for a 2 ohms load, and the other two together for another 2 ohm load, But your source unit does not have enough power to push 2 sets anyway so it would be a waste... Just wire them up 4 ohm stereo = Right ch (+ pos to + pos / - neg to - neg), & Left ch. (+ pos to + pos / - neg to - neg) Now if you make sure your source unit's bal & fade controls are both set to 0 / center, you can TRY to bridge the output from it's 4 ch to 2 ch for more power... In other words, take the front and rear right outputs and wire those together to your right speaker (+ pos to + pos / - neg to - neg), and then take the left front and left rear outputs and wire those together to your left speaker (+ pos to + pos / - neg to - neg) - As I said, you can TRY this as I do not know if it will work or not, but if it does work and you are only running 1 set of those speakers from it, it would make a difference as those are 100w rms speakers so you can use all the extra power you can get from your source [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
