.....got the wide-awakes....will fade soon though.....

.....some of you guys who followed me on the series wiring and parallel wiring, "circuits", attack this one....

.....my subs have four subwoofer elements in each cabinet....two are on each end pointing out, one right behind the other, and both have to go the same direction as far as excursion movement as per a closed airspace "between" them....and don't make nothing hard out of that, by the way....

.....and, the two sides actually move the same direction excursion-movement-wise, because the two sides are backwards to each other....yes, magnets stare at each other in the middle, inside....

.....the subwoofer elements are rated at 4 ohms individually by industry standards....the four elements as a whole, are wired in a push-pull configuration, 2-and-2, and represent 4 ohms of resistance load to an amp section.....

....you will have three circuits that total 12 that will be divided by three circuits to get 4 overall....how are the four 4-ohm elements wired?, and all three circuits are wired to the backdoor two posts + and -....

.....good luck, Gentlemen, and start the clock.....

.....the Grand Prize will be a weeks stay in picturesque, Oil Trough, Arkansas, in the lower level of a two level condo building which is situated between two beautiful swamps that haven't reported an alligator sighting in over a week.....

.....oh, the week comes complete with 1/2-off reimbursement of a Greyhound bus ticket, but ya' gotta' get home the best way you can.....
.....ok, guys, we've had a flood of responses here at the station, and I can see the question was way too easy.....

....yes, one side of two subwoofer elements is wired parallel and now represents two circuits of 2 ohms each using 4 ohm subwoofer elements.....

.....the other side of two subwoofer elements is wired in series, "one circuit", and represents 8 ohms using 4 ohm subwoofer elements.....

.....now, on the total picture, we have 2+2+8=12 divided by three circuits.....

.....well, some guy named Wiley Coyote just called in, and asked what I thought about Acme speakers to go with his 7.1 Acme receiver.....
 
I don't think anyone is really following this any more. If you want to talk about crosswiring again (with yourself or others) please post a diagram and start a new thread. This thread is far removed from its initial profound one-word topic...
