This page looks at the various possibilities for connecting multiple drivers. Stereo solutions that produce a load less than two ohms per channel or greater than eight ohms per channel are ignored Mono / Bridged mode solutions that produce a load less four ohms mono are ignored When using pro amps, the stereo solution produces lower distortion than the bridged solution The preferred solution is drawn in stronger colors. It's the one that provides sufficient power without stressing the amp After the drawings is an analysis of what power would be available using the Behringer amps, and the preferred option is shown |
|
IB4
- Four driver system
|
Requires 190w normal duty and up to 480w on peaks
|
Stereo mode 2 ohms / channel gives around 1400w .... much more than is needed 8 ohms / channel gives around 560w ..... preferred option Bridged mode 4 ohm load gives around 1400w. .... much more than is needed |
|
IB8
- Eight driver system
|
Requires 410w normal duty and up to 1050w on peaks
|
Stereo mode 4 ohms / channel gives around 1500w ( some reports say 1300w) ..... preferred option Bridged mode 8 ohm load gives around 1500w ( some reports say 1300w) |
|
Possible alternative amplifier Stereo mode 4 ohms / channel gives around 560w ..... preferred option for this amp, but lacks headroom Bridged mode 8 ohm load gives around 560w |
|
IB12
- Twelve driver system
|
Requires 670w normal duty and up to 1700w on peaks
|
Stereo mode 2.7 ohms / channel should give around 1800w ..... preferred option 6 ohms / channel should give around 575w .... not enough power Bridged mode 5.3 ohm load gives around 2000w |
