THIS IS CRAZY, i know.. BUT but-...

Letīs play around with the thought to have for example
8 JBL SUB 1500 connected to only ONE ampfilter...

Building a subtower :D

THEN, letīs say the tower will operate between 16 - 120hz !

It would be possible i think to make this 8 drivers work
as an unit of 8ohm. Lets say the ampfilter is capable of
delivering 1400 watt in 4 ohm, BRIDGED, and if we have
8ohm loudspeaker, the amp will see 4ohm, thatīs corect? :)

OK, 1400 watts to 8 JBL SUB 1500.

Will the amp be able to deliver enought power so the drivers
can operate in their max?

Is there any way to illustrate this in some graphs?
I have not been taking some EQ_ing in mind...


Just a funny thing to play around with...
:p

IF you could afford to buy 8 1500 subs. Why drive them with only ONE large amp. I would prefer to use 8 amps (bi amped) to upper speaker systems.

If I calculate, it would be like each driver will have
some 250 watt if the amp can dleiver 2000 watt then..

wich may be enought if we have basreflex boxes

My 32 drivers are soon on their way.
Then 4 towers will be built

Itīs not fair, if Iīm ordering to Sweden, I end up paying
customs and taxes, itīs about 31% extra to the cost
from Parts Express !

It sux

And then the feight.. gaahhh


Well, IF I only knew someone in the states who
bought the drivers and shipped them to me, I dont
have to pay theese 31% and thats great..

But i dont know anyone.. :banghead:
