I have 2 dual 15'' jbl dj speaker, will this amp be able to lift them and if so can i hook them up in 8 ohm?

Yes you can but I think you might need a little bit more wattage to push those 4 if you want some serious sound
1442607
i have 2 of these and use in a tri-amp situation, mid and upper end only (took out tweeters and mids once JBL too) i would as i did go up a notch and go with the 4000 model for low end and yes 2 to 8 ohms possible

You haven't provided all the necessary information to receive a worthy answer. We understand you want to power a pair of dual 15" speakers at 8 Ohms, but that's all we know. Complete your research by finding out the power handling ability and capacity of the speakers. Then, look again at the outputs that the amp is capable of. Your answer is then looking right back at you.I assure you this: Relying upon a bunch of people you do not know for answers to questions like this is going to come at a cost. You have no idea that they know anything about which they speak.

Yes, you should be able to power your 8 ohms speakers. Just don't daisy-chain another set of speakers.

I am not sure, however I do have a problem. It is advertised as an 8 ohm amp but it is only a 4 ohm. I have been warned that it would damage my 8 ohm speaker. Is that true. I hope that, for both our sakes, we can hook up a reverb to the amp because the effects are not good. Haddon Salt

I wouldn't suggest it. There is just not enough power output here to run 2 - 4 ohm cabs. You need a bigger amp that can run bridge mono at 2 ohms if daisy chained or has separate outs for each cab with a higher wattage output. Of course this also depends on what the power handling and needs of each cab is. If its a bass cab then I'm betting its power needs are much higher than this amp can deliver. Call us we can help.

you would put the speaker in series to drop it down to 2 ohms if you parallel it it will come out to 8 ohms check with ohm meter if you don't believe

I wouldn't use this unit. It will not drive 8 ohms speakers even though it's rated 90W. Also if you don't connect both channels it will severely overheat. Must be the way the amp is designed.

That's a good match, IMO. An 8 ohm load will only make ~7-8 watts on this amp. You may start to see some distortion after half volume but even at that point, it's plenty loud. Just keep in mind, it's not a 100 watt amp.. I had that amp connected to a pair of large 100 watt 8 ohm home stereo speakers and it did a great job! If you have a way to adjust the tone on the input audio, it'll rock! Very clean and accurate..

The 6 Ohm setting on the amp should work okay for your nice 8 Ohm speakers. Higher impedance speakers should dissipate less power and consequently might sound a tiny bit quieter than lower impedance speakers at the same volume setting. But I doubt you will notice any difference.

Hi, this amp is not bridgeable, it only has a speaker impedance selector (8 ohms or 4 ohms)

What matters is the impedance. Most Amps are 8 ohm as are speakers. When you hook multiple speakers in parallel the impedance goes down. The selector ensures that the impedance is at least 4 ohms even when as many as eight speakers are hooked in parallel (and would otherwise present 1 ohm of impedance). On my Yamaha receiver there is a switch that allows for a 4 ohm load and that is the key. You can probably run a 4 ohm load from an 8 ohm driver, it just means that more energy is dissipated in the amp than in the speakers but hopefully not so much as to do damage

This amp will be perfect for that, you will want to put two speakers in parallel on each channel, giving you a 2 ohm load on each. Like this http://www.diyaudioandvideo.com/FAQ/Wiring/parallel.gif on each channel.

You should be able to if you have the power to push themI us them for my Dj set up and it brings out the Hi endbut I have them on there own power amp.

Yes for sure.. Wire your speaker to one ohm.. Hope your amp is stable at one ohm

Hooked up at 2 ohms this amp would definitely run them, at 4 it powers my 2 15" pioneers no problem at 700 each

Should be fine. I have it powering two 12" Bostons. I ran 8 gauge wire to it. "BOSS Audio KIT2 8 Gauge Amplifier" I ordered that for 16$ has everything you'll need... My speakers are also 4 ohm, so I have them wired normal.. but if yours are 8ohm I'd suggest hooking them up parallel, you'll get more power. But, Pioneer is a Japanese made amp. So you'll get better sound quality then bass. Though it'll still kick, it works fine for me. But if you want something designed more for bass, get an American made sub, something like kickerz.

I am using a pyle PWMA3003T Hybrid amp, this amp supports 8,4,2 OHM. This amp works very well with these speakers, loud, clar, and will not over power speaker.

Amp will drive 4 ohm speaker at 300 watts. Will drive 8 ohm speaker at 150 watts.

Yes I think it will play it very well, you can wire it at 8ohm just to be sure you don't over work the amp. I am using an 12" orion dual 4 but am running it 4ohms and the amp gets little hot when running it loud. I think the amp will destroy the speaker before itself thou
