    7 • If you connect more t han two speak- ers using only se ries or only parallel connections, t he total impedance might exceed the am plifier ’s maxi- mum impedance (1 6 ohms) or fall below its minim um impedan ce (4 ohms). For example, if y ou connect fo ur 8- ohm speakers: –In series, the tota l impedance is 32 ohms (8 + 8 + 8 + 8 = 32). T ...

    9 If you connect fou r 8-ohm speaker s in series, the total imp edance is 32 ohms (8 + 8 + 8 + 8 = 32). This exceeds the maximum rating. If you connect th ese speakers in paral- lel, the total impeda nce is 2 ohms (8 ÷ 4 = 2). This falls below the minimum rat- ing. You can arrive at a pro per total imped- ance by combining series and parallel conn ...
