Adding a resistor in series for speakers Discussion in ' Audio Hardware ' started by shnaggletooth , Jun 20, Location: NJ. What exactly is that all about? Location: Under the Inverted Bowl of Darkness. I can't imagine, but whatever it is, it's not rational.
I'd rather not waste amplifier power heating up a silent resistor. Totale , Jun 20, Location: Washington, DC. I noticed that the Zu Audio website sells resistors for speakers. See the link below. Scott in DC , Jun 20, Location: Seattle, WA. The theory is that since tube amps have a low damping factor which equates to a high output impedance , that this will help a SS amp which features a high damping factor and a low output impedance to partially mimic how a tube amp interacts with a set of speakers which were voiced for tube amps.

You might want to have on hand several of the values stepping around a center of about. Try economical sandstone resistors to start and then if you find a magic value, maybe then consider if you want to invest in a nicer made one.
The more R in use, the higher wattage rating you may need too, especially if settling in on a specific value for the long run. Over damped drivers don't allow the tail out of a note very well. Adding that small amount of R will, as said, lower the damping and allow a more natural ring to the note. As to whether you like an overly tight "thwap", or a natural decay though, may be for you to decide. R across a driver to give the amp a controlled resistance at resonance peak is a different thing.
CoolJazz , Jun 20, Location: Beverly, MA. Why exactly is analog considered the true state? I posit that solid state is more accurate owing to the lack of tube coloration. Heresey I'm sure. Kal Rubinson , Jun 24, Location: Helenville, WI. Putting a small value resistor in series with the speaker leads raises the QTS of the woofer. The QTC of the system will be higher and sound warmer with more apparent bass.
However, 1 ohm in series might be a bit too much in my opinion, especially on a 4 ohm system. Vance Dickason and D. Weems both discuss this in their speaker building publications. That is why we use low dc resistance chokes in woofer crossovers.
They minimize the increase in the Q of the driver. Location: Northwest, USA. Ive done this series connection in 1 speaker output to balance a multiple speakers in one cabinet that has different ohm load. But I wouldn't really wanna do it long term. You're better off getting the matching speaker or amp.
The speaker load in zu is a parallel connection like a dummy load to compensate the excessive push of the amp to the speaker cabinet. Speaking of speakers, I was holding the volume remote and went up to 3'o clock in the volume knob for a 2 seconds. That doesn't feel like its a good thing Classic Car Guy , Jun 28, You must log in or sign up to reply here. Show Ignored Content. Share This Page.

Speaker Impedance Measurements
Speakers are devices that convert electrical signals amplified by the amplifier, into vibrations of air that can be heard by humans as sound. Speakers come in various shapes and sizes, types and models. There are two main types of speaker, based on where the signal is amplified. The characteristics of each type is described below. Speakers that only feature basic speaker functionality can be called "passive" speakers.
25 Ohm Speaker Loading Resistors
Home - Speakers - Impedance Matching. Updated: November 22, How important is the impedance of your speakers? If you've nothing better to do, learn all about ohms and speaker impedance matching. Exciting, huh? The resistance of an electrical circuit refers to how hard it is to send an electrical signal through it. Resistance is the term used when a circuit uses direct current DC , whereas impedance is used when a circuit uses alternating current AC.

What is the Difference between 2 Ohm, 4 Ohm, and 1 Ohm?
All pretty simple, right? The truth is, since your receiver is the source of power in your system, its impedance is negligible. Now speakers on the other hand, do in fact have measurable impedance because of the crossover network and the impedance of the drivers themselves. Since impedance is a measure of how much the speaker resists current, the lower the impedance in ohms, the more power the speaker will draw from your receiver.

can I use a resistor to match 3 ohm speakers to an 8ohm receiver?
High power resistors are used in crossover networks to adjust the levels of individual speaker units and they are also used in oscillator circuits and equalisers. Their basic job is to convert surplus or unwanted electrical power into heat. One of the most important specifications of a resistor is thus its power handling capacity, which is expressed in watts. Resistors' residual inductance is also relevant for tweeter circuits. Ordinary ceramic resistors consist of an insulator body cast around a wire winding.
