Hello, Just wanted to say thank you i was able to get a set of these and i'm using them as the rear setup of speakers for my 5.1 setup. and it worked great. I was able to follow your steps and was able to use these speakers and not use the transformer. I got my set at an auction and got them super cheap. brand new and i agree they work great and sound great for what i needed. thanks again

If you only have two of these and hook them up directly to the amplifier what would happen? What changes when you do this as opposed to leaving them as is when just running two

@thepinner9792 3 жыл бұрын

The more parallel speakers you connect creates LOWER resistance. This causes the amp to deliver higher current which causes the amp to protect itself (if you're lucky).

@Trialnerror 3 жыл бұрын

Lower the ohms number but RAISE the actual resistance. Not to mention you can add by wiring in series to lower the resistance (but raise the ohms)

@@Trialnerror Resistance is measured in Ohms. Lower Ohms is lower resistance. Voltage divided by resistance equals current. If the resistance is too low you are putting too big of a load on the amp and it will blow a fuse. Or the amp will go into current limiting mode if it was designed with built in current limiting.

I plan on taking them out of the original ceiling enclosure and installing them into a pair of salvaged floor standing tower speakers for home use. I would like to know if I will need to instal them with the original crossover and at what wattage will they operate at after removing them from the original ceiling box. Thanks.

Суть идеи - это исключение из электрической схемы динамика - трансформатор. Провода входа в динамик, а это красный и чёрный, нужно напрямую соединить с двумя проводами на кроссовер (аудио и красный провод, идущие от трансформатора на кроссовер), аудио динамиков Control 24CT micro.

@StanTheObserver-lo8rx 5 жыл бұрын

Speaking of converting. What happens when you make home speakers out of speakers sold for cars? I mean subwoofer for $20 made for cars vs. $300 made for home. Same for dome tweeters,midrange..even amplifiers. You could get all that so cheap..but what does a home woofer with rubber edge sound like compared to the conventional?

@JohnSawtell 5 жыл бұрын

A subwoofer or tweeter for a car generally speaking is no different for a car than a house. A midrange/bass driver for a car is normally designed to be run open baffle so they would normally be only appropriate to be run mounted in a wall or ceiling. Car amplifiers require a 12v power supply with a large current demand and would normally not be worth the cost or effort to be used for a home. With car audio speakers the main issue you would have to be concerned with is they are often only four ohm (sometimes even lower with subs) and not all home amplifiers can drive a speaker below six or eight ohms (it should always be listed in a amp/recievers user guide).

Does your tap selector not have a straight 8ohm (or 16 in your case?) selection? I’ve got a couple different 70/100v transformer speakers and both have an 8ohm selection which I’d believe accomplishes what you just did here?

@dannytubeyou83 4 жыл бұрын

Its exactly the same for the 24CT, I've just done 4 tonight and i used this video for reference. The wire colours are identical too. Just make sure for the green and yellow, you dont do what i did on the first one and connect the red and black to the green and yellow going too the transformer! You connect them to the wires going to the selector switch (once you cut the cable in half). I used red thru crimps to connect my cables together and it worked a treat. Really simple job to do.

dannytubeyou83 how did you wire them to your receiver? I might get a few of them but I want to make sure I can hook them all up.

@dannytubeyou83 3 жыл бұрын

@@jessefladmark4554 you wire them exactly the same as a normal speaker once you have converted them over using this method (suitable 2 core cable to amp). I have put 2 speakers per channel in parallel. What this does is change the ohms per channel from 16ohms down to 8 ohms. It's important to make sure your speaker ohms match your amplifiers output capabilities. If you dont, you can blow your amp. This is one of the main reasons I chose the JBL speaker, due to their 16ohm impedance (meaning I can have 2 per channel producing 8 ohms). I found most other speakers on the market are 4 or 8 ohm each meaning running 2 in parallel either creates 4 or 2 ohms (two equal output speakers in parallel halves the ohms output), which not all amplifiers can handle. I know that's alot of info, but I hope it helps!
