System 3: Two (or more) speakers in parallel 1.Connect the LEFT SPEAKER (-) to the RIGHT SPEAKER (-). 2.Connect both the LEFT SPEAKERS (-) and RIGHT SPEAKER (-) to the amplifier COMMON terminal. 3.Connect the LEFT SPEAKER (+) to the RIGHT SPEAKER (+). 4.Connect both the LEFT SPEAKER (-) to the RIGHT SPEAKER (+) to the amplifier 4 Ohm, 8 Ohm or 16 Ohm terminal, depending on the TOTAL IMPEDANCE of the two speakers. If each speaker has an impedance of 8 Ohms, the total speaker impedance in this parallel configuration is 4 Ohms. System 4: Four speakers in series/parallel combination 1.Group the four speakers in two pairs. 2.Connect one pair of speakers in series (see system 2, above). Note total impedance in chart below. 3.Connect one pair of speakers in parallel (see system 3, above). Note total impedance in chart below. 4.Connect the speakers' (-) terminals to the amplifier COMMON terminal. 5.Connect the speakers' (+) terminals to amplifier's 4 Ohm, 8 Ohm or 16 Ohm terminal, depending on the TOTAL IMPEDANCE of the four speakers.
