@millercarbon : You've got it wrong! Parallel wiring reduces combined impedance to half - two 8 ohm speakers become a 4 ohm load. As the OP stated. Series connection of two 8 ohm speakers doubles the impedance - 16 ohms is the result. This I don't recommend because it will ruin the amplifier's ability to damp the 16 ohm pair! Stick with parallel!
Double Advent wiring question...
Hi
Want to run Double Advent 1 stack in parallel.
Just want to Confirm...
From my Carver amp...
I can run a speaker run as usual to each speaker and then from 1st set of left channel speaker just run from + to + and - to - negative of second set of speakers so I am running a long jumper. And do the same for right channel of course.
This should give me a parallel wiring and now amp will be pushing 4ohms..
Thx...
