Back to the Books

GTO 75.4 when connected to GTo 607c it would push out 142W RMS at 2 ohms Surprisingly amazing performance from the Big Papa Punk GTO 75.4

That makes it twice the maximum input 607 can take.

So at normal Volume Levels they are fine but as as Volume gets higher so does the power which would Lead to a burnt smell and smoke coming from your Speakers Meaning time for Replacement of speakers

Also important Note dont even try to start the audio playing at high volumes they will cook the Speakers in 5 seconds time.

Start up audio at low volume and rise up slow.

4 ohms speaker is a comparitively better option i would say yet they are still high power for the 607c's.

I see the JBL components 607c are 2 ohm speakers while the Infinity and hertz components are 4 ohms and have better power handling.

LBM suggested setting the HPF to 100hz or more to save the 2 ohm speakers from blowing.

I dont think this is what LBM meant.

the sole reason to XO a speaker higher is to prevent it from being over loaded with low frequencies. The impedance of the speaker has little to do with it's ability to handle low frequncies.

Is it good idea to put one more pair of GTO 607C at rear doors(Swift is having place for that) connected to front 2 channels of AMP and rear will power the GTO937 at MDF plank for optimium use of 75.4 AMP?

[nitrous]

Ajay, U will induce a 1 ohm load on the amp and the amp isn't 1 ohm stable.

Instead of smoking one pair of 607C's you are giving idea's to smoke 2 pairs

If i power them in series then?

[nripin]

Pravin Have you Bought your stuff yet ?

Can i suggest something for you ?

4 channel GT-604 amp,GTO-607c front & GTO937 Rear

Do this After that you can start on your Craving for Bass.

By the time your are ready for Stage 2 ICE we would have more options open in the Market too.

This is only my suggestion

Let me know what you think.

Also the Later you buy the Cheaper things Get

Do you know how to Calculate the Series and Parallel connections?

I have lot of doubts with them.

Any suggestions on a Bhpian whose Real Good at Sound Engineering calculations?

I wanted to grab more of Series and || connections.

GTO 937 is a Good Match for the Big Punk 75.4
I used to Run a pair of GTO 936e from 2 Channels of a 75.4

The sound used to hurt my Ear.

If you have to connect it in series, the + from amp to + of one speaker, the -ve of which will be connected to the + of the second speaker and the -ve of second speaker goes to the -ve of amp which i am doubtful will work.

But it's my view and i'm no expert. ICE gurus what do you say??

1. the best way to ensure that the amp does not blow speakers is to turn the gain on the amp down and HPFs on.

2. Now assuming that you want to use a 75.4 to wire up 2 x 607s and 1 x 937 this is what you could do. Wire the 607s in series (+ to -) and to the front channel of the amp, leaving the rear channel of the amp to power the 937.

Mind you if you do this the image will alwys feel like it is coming from the rear (for the driver and front passenger) becuase more than half the power from the amp is being used to drive speakers behind the driver and front passenger.

3. If it were me this is what I would do.
use the amp to drive the 4 607s after the amp's gains and HPF have been tuned
use the HU to drive the 6x9s
this might not be optimum use of the amp or give the best bass but it will provide the optimum imaging.
