RE: 32 Ohm Drivers // 32 Ohm OPTs

Max,

I hate to keep bothering you. Just sign off when you want to.

I'll read up on how to measure the Fs of a driver. I have 12 and only require 8. The instructions you gave on matching is priceless to me. Thank you. That is, if I want to be anal rententive, which I never am.

Really you've got the wheels turning on how to go parallel. Like breaking up the quad into two pairs run parallel, that is, two pair at 4ohms each. Then you could use a 2a3 amp on the 4ohm tap to run the quad of two pairs. One amp per horn. Getting way way back to the origins of this thread, I don't think running a 2a3 on the 4ohm tap is a good idea for various reasons, but options are always limited.

The Decware SE84 strapped mono can give about 4 watts into a 1 ohm load, and drive the hell out of it.

Max, thanks for helping me see my options more clearly.

Big speakers and little amps blew my mind!
