RS-Series System Components

Wiring two RS-Series System Components to a single channel

Modern high performance system components have a lower DC Resistance than what used to be available. The Kicker RS-Series

System Components are rated at four ohms and work with any source unit or amplifier designed to operate at a four ohm load. If you
want to use two RS-Series System Components on each channel of your source unit or amplifier wire the system components in
series--at the connection between the crossover and source unit or amplifier, as shown below in Figure 6. This will improve the sound
quality, lower the total harmonic distortion and lessen the thermal load at the source unit or amplifier. This may prevent an amplifier
from shutting down, due to over-current protection circuitry.
