Has Anyone Ever Run TWO Identical Pairs of Speakers ?
Don't listen to the negative comments, as it ain't necessarily so.
Sometime ago I tested mine by disconnecting the enclosure on one side and connecting it in parallel to the one on the other side. I then played a mono track. I was shocked as I didn't believe there would be any difference.
Caveat: just be certain you won't be damaging your amp by not having a load on the unused channel.
Warning: do not connect them in series as you will halve the impedance, so even 6 ohms will become 3 ohms.
You're not going to muddle the sound and it is likely to sound better as you'll be doubling to impedance, which will reduce your amplifier output but importantly it will also reduce THD+N. Each enclosure will be reproducing around half the volume which is a bonus. I heard people say you'll mess timing, but honestly does it really make any difference if the speakers are in one large enclosure or two?
Don't take anyone's word. Try it for yourself and trust your ears.
