RE: DIY amplifier for current hungry speakers question.
Posted by 6bq5 on January 7, 2017 at 15:45:47:
If you have a tube amp with multiple taps - say 2, 4 & 8 Ohms, and your current hungry speakers are currently connected to the 8 ohm taps - you can go down to the 4 or 2 ohm taps you will get more current - at the expense of voltage-
Ohm's Law (AC) Current = Voltage / impedance
The tube amp output function is fixed by the circuit and the OPT-
adjusting the bias will not affect the output.
