20.3 !!!!!

[yuki953]

Major, i just set up a 20.3 setup... its rlly getto though, its just 3 bases, and 20 speakers, im afraid to turn on, what do you think?

what sorry
explain?

20.3???

 

[WeatherMan]

Please be kidding me, Are you saying you've hooked up 20 sat's & 3 subs to your amp / crosswired everything?

What a joke. Wth

 

[gamerman4]

not 20.3 at all, surround sound naming scheme has nothing to do with number of speakers, it is the channel count. for example: 5.1 means there are 6 individual channels of audio...C,FR,FL,RL,RR, and Sub. Regardless of hoqw many speakers you use, they will be outputting one of those 6 channels.

Just turn it on. It might blow your head into pieces...

And all of them are hooked up correctly?? I have a feeling SOMETHING is going to blow here.

 

[funkysnair]

how many amps are powering it?

show us some pics then, if there all coming out of 1 amp you will prob break it

Seems like a complete impedance speaker mismatch to me, burn out a cummin

 

[Shane]

Pictures or it didnt happen

The best I could do is a "10.1" and that would put such a strain on my amp I would never try it. If you have more than 1 speaker hooked up to 1 output on the amp, you're probably overloading it.

You would have to find out what impedance your amplifier can take them try to wire the speakers in parallel or series or a combination to get the required impedance. Here is a good article explaining it all : http://www.marktaw.com/recording/Electronics/OhmsAmpsandSpeakers.html
