Hi,
I have an Electrohome amplifier with an output capacity of 100x2 Watts. I tried hooking to it two large Sharp speakers, but they didn't work.
On the amplifier, it says that it needs two speakers, eight ohms each ( A or B : 8 ohm each min. A+ B 16 ohm)
Then I tried a subwoofer (it says it is 12 ohm) and it worked fine. I have the following questions:
1. I am trying to figure why my sharp speakers are not working with this amp. As there is no impedance specifications on these speakers, I used my multimeter to measure the resistance between the two leads of one of the sharp speakers and it came out to be 5 ohm.
2. How do I figure what kind of speakers are best suited for this amplifier?
Thanks,
MG.
