6X12 Ohms
« on: May 18, 2011, 06:53:02 pm »
Hi, I'm aware that most 6 and 3 12 cabs Sunn made were rated at 6 ohms, but how many ohms were each individual speaker in the 6x12 cabinets?

8 ohms.

Two 8 ohm drivers in series = 16 ohms.

Three 16 ohm pairs in parallel = 5.333 ohms ~ 6 ohms.

Awesome, thanks so much. If all goes as planned I should be picking up a 6x12 tomorrow.
