Wiring
our
4 ohm Dual Voice
Coil
Speaker for 2 channel connection:
Note, the
following speaker models from Retrosound (R-57N,
R-410N, R-69N, R-65N)
feature Dual Voice Coils, this
allows
you to connect left and right speaker channels to one
speaker, this
will give you a
fuller,
richer sound for vehicles that only have one single
speaker mounted in the dash or the rear deck area.

Wiring our 4 ohm Dual Voice
Coil
Speaker in series so the amplifier sees
an
8 ohm
impedance:
Note: The
following
speaker models from Retrosound (R-57N,
R-41
ON
, R-69N,R-65N)
feature Dual Voice Coils, Wiring the voice coils in series
allows
the unit's amplifier to see
an 8 ohm nominal load. This is an advanced wiring concept and should only be done by
experienced and knowledgeable
installers.

A
note
about
nominal
impedance:
Nominal
Impedance
is
the
manufacturer's
specification
given
for
the
speaker.
It
is
meant
to
represent
the
average
impedance
a
speaker
presents
to
an
amp.
Resistance
fluctuates
constantly
on
the
speaker
while
it
is
playing,
so
if
you
try
to
measure
DC
resistance
on
a
speaker
with
a
multi
meter
while
it
is
just
sitting
on
a
bench,
you
will
most
likely
not
get
a
reading
consistent
with
the
ohm
value
stamped
on
the
back
of
the
speaker's
magnet.
