I would just like to know kung puwede bang gumamit ng 4 na speakers sa amp na 2 lang ang speaker post? O kaya, meron bang splitter para makagamit ng 4 speakers? Sayang kasi yung 2 speakers na hindi magagamit. Thanks.

Why not? Just take note of your Ohms law :devil: Your Amp should match your speakers total impedance to avoid overheating and added to this Speaker Total Handling Power should be equal or less than your Amp Rated Power (watts)

Remember this:
-Speakers in Parallel cuts your impedance to half (assuming equal speakers)
-Speakers in series is the sum of all speakers impedance (just make sure of the correct connections)
-Speakers Total Power handling should be equal or less than your Amp rated Power

Thanks! I was thinking of using splitters kasi, pero baka hindi na maging pareho yung sound.

Why not speaker selector na lang.

1 week sa isang pair then another week para dun sa isa. Or, depende na lang sa mood mo or the genre na patutugtugin. Maybe 1 pair for vocals then the other for instrumentals.

Mahirap yung pinsasamasama especially kung ibang brands...... risky din....

Look up Hafler Circuit. Though siguraduhin mo lang na yung amp mo kaya mag-drive ng low-impedance loads.

Here is one link, but google for more.

Puwede pala akong gumamit ng speaker switch. Anyone knows where I can buy this, besides buying online? Thanks.
