Speaking of Impedance...

[Neil Morrison]

How do I convert my car from gas to diesel? Same answer - you don't.

Weird ohm speakers - like 3 ohm - are usually meant to go with a specific
make and model of stereo and not be mixed and matched.

If you can't find 16 ohm, get 2 pairs (4) of smaller 8 ohm and put them in
series. Of course, you could get a transformer to convert from 3 to 16 ohms,
but that's too weird.

Here's a cake problem.. <for you not me>

I have a stereo receiver rated at 16Ω and speakers rated at 3Ω.

How do I hook them up as not to fry either??

Please Help...

And, Don't Laugh... <grin>

Thank You,
