what is the impedance for these speakers?
2054902
if you are asking what the resistance spec, i dont know!!! I have had bigger bic 6s and loved them. These are of course a lot smaller. All i can say is that i use them for garage speckers hung on the wall powered by a cheaper 40 50 watt receiver and they work well. I have always liked bic speckers, i dont believe you will be disappointed. More money will bring better speakers. Magnets make a big difference too, bigger the better and more power in the receiver would help. I am happy with mine.

These are passive speakers .All you are required to do is connect speaker wire from a receiver or amplifier. The electrical resistance of each speaker or ohms. I never really checked. HOWEVER ,due to the cheap cost of these speakers I am confidently predicting that they are 8 ohms. Only if they are connected in parallel with the receiver will the electrical resistance be change to 4 ohms.

Hi,well there close to 3.1/2 -4.1/2 close to that.but I will tell you this,I didn't hook mine up wright away.I was saving them for my camper.when I did finally hook them up they where blown speakers,After I looked at them closely they where used speakers.So I therw them away.I wrote to the company no reply,So be careful with your order.Just thought you should know. HAVE A GOOD ONE.MEL

The impedance of the speaker doesnt change in Bridged or Parallel or Series modes.The important thing is what is being presesnted to the amplifier.The speaker manufacturer here is saying that these speakers will suit amps that require any load between 4 and 8 Ohms....I've used these speakers in my car and would see no issue in a home...I don't know the distance

The impedance with the high and low range terminals connected in parallel with supplied connectors (recommended default setting) is 8 ohms. The speakers can be driven with an 8 or 4 ohm amplifier. Most receivers are 8 ohms. I am driving them with an amplifier designed for 8 ohm speakers and they sound great. There should sound just as good connected to a 4 ohm amplifier. Basically the impedance of the speaker should be equal to or greater than the minimum rated impedance of the amplifier.

They are passive speakers, so they are neither 120 or 220 compatible. You need a separate amp to run them.

All the info I read put them at 2ohm. I am running them at 2ohm from my amp.

Either 6 or 8 ohms should not make a difference. Any home receiver will be compatible. These speakers are used as satellite speakers in my application since they do not produce a lot of bass.

Spec wise I think they rate they at 90db. It doesn't take a whole lot of amplifier to make them sound good. I'm using 110 watts max on my Sony system and 100 watts on my Okyo system. Of course I'm only using a fraction of the power settings.

Im not sure about if they are better than the speakers you asked about. I dont have any experience with them. As far as a specific reciever again I wouldnt know. I originally had them hooked up to a reciever rated at 125 watts per channel. It was only for 8ohm speakers and I was a little disappointed. I bought a reciever rated at 145 watts at 6 ohms and they really came alive. I do recommend a subwoofer.

Not sure of the exact output but I bought these for my girlfriend for Christmas and they are great. They are plenty loud to fill a room. I have a large stereo system because I am an audiohaulic and you are not going to beat these speakers for the price and size. Hope this helped.

The frequency balance is good, 30 Hz I don't know. Remember, you get what you pay for. I like these speakers a lot.

16 ohms impedance. As for it's sensitivity, it is more sensitive than my Klipsch earspeakers. So I can "lower" the volume settings on my mp3 player using the Final Audio Adagio III. If you do purchase them, do not go by the initial listening. I was disappointed because they sounded no better nor worse that the Klipsch I already had. But as they broke in, I can not go back to the Klipsch. It produces powerful deep real bass, where you can almost feel it and certainly can distinguish between the bass notes. The mid range is wonderful and the highs, all present with a delicate touch. Depending on how your ears are shaped will really determine the sound you get in your ears. But I love these and am happy to have them. They come highly rated in the audio press too.

I measured them when I got them and they were something like 2.6. These are designed that way to accommodate OEM wiring, which I smaller gauge than aftermarket, and low powered radios. Installed the resistance is over 3, but that is less than using 4 ohm speakers. Actually, amps get more control, but require more power with higher resistance. That is way home stuff is 8 ohm. In a car power is limited by the alternator output. For matching, look at the RMS Watt rating of the amps and speakers and try to match 75% to 150% of the amp rating. Speaker sensitivity will also be a clue. A 3 dB difference means twice or half as loud. So a proper Watt RMS and as high a sensitivity possible is a good general rule. These are rated at 93 dB so they are better than most. Sensitivity is the measure of sound at 1 Watt power from 1 meter away.

They are 10" 50W speakers. When plugged in together to the head amp they support 100W mono.

My Tech checked them, they are 6 ohm, however please understand that this is a complete Bose system, not intended to be used with other systems Amps, so if you were to use these speakers in any way that is not intended by Bose. And the speakers are damaged, I can not have them returned for a refund, I appreciate your interest, but must make this clear, as I said this is a complete Bose system, and not to be connected in any other way, thanks, Jack

I have measured their impedence as around 4 1/2 ohms over much of their frequency range; this is likely to rise around the crossover point when you add a capacitor (eg 3.3 microfarad) to keep low frequencies out. Whether they sound any good will depend on whether they are similar to what you are replacing, they are very efficient and might end up sounding very bright, with unpredictable integration with whatever woofers you are using. Good luck! Richard
