Has Anyone Ever Run TWO Identical Pairs of Speakers ?

Has Anyone Ever Run TWO Identical Pairs of Speakers ?

Don't listen to the negative comments, as it ain't necessarily so.

Sometime ago I tested mine by disconnecting the enclosure on one side and connecting it in parallel to the one on the other side. I then played a mono track. I was shocked as I didn't believe there would be any difference.

Caveat: just be certain you won't be damaging your amp by not having a load on the unused channel.

Warning: do not connect them in series as you will halve the impedance, so even 6 ohms will become 3 ohms.

You're not going to muddle the sound and it is likely to sound better as you'll be doubling to impedance, which will reduce your amplifier output but importantly it will also reduce THD+N. Each enclosure will be reproducing around half the volume which is a bonus. I heard people say you'll mess timing, but honestly does it really make any difference if the speakers are in one large enclosure or two?

Don't take anyone's word. Try it for yourself and trust your ears.

I did the same thing right side to sideTerri I divided the signal at the preamp And have two identical MacIntosh apps that run the sack. It’s just like the guy above me said it fills the room with sweat mellow music

Depending on their height, you should really try three, much better results. The line array thing.

I use two separate speaker pairs. ML Motion 60 XTI and GE Triton Reference. I also run them through two separate Amplifier's. PL EVO 400 and Parasound A21+. The music is fantastic no matter what you are listening to. Clear, detailed no crossing of frequency. Bass is tight and accurate. You can hear everything that is being played in the band, and vocals are perfect.  70- 80 DB is all you need. All of my friends say it's some of the best sounds they have heard. A couple are musicians and DJ's. Bottom line is your building your system for you. If you like it it's all good. Even at 90- 100db the sound is awesome. 

pedroeb - Sorry, you need to check Ohm's law. Parallel will halve the nominal 6 ohms to 3 ohms. Series will make the load 12 ohms. As for your comment on THD, maybe, but not necessarily. Also series speaker connections are not recommended by anyone I know. The best way to connect multiple speakers if your amp can't handle the lower parallel impedance is series/parallel, but you'll need 4 speakers per channel. Good luck.
