How to Match Amplifiers and Speakers: A Practical Guide

Choosing amplifiers and speakers separately is easy. Getting them to sound good together is another story. It's not enough to simply add their power ratings or cross your fingers: matching amplifiers and speakers follows precise rules, which have to do with impedance, sensitivity, and...

Impedance: The load the speakers present to the amplifier

The nominal impedance of a speaker — expressed in ohms (Ω) — indicates the electrical resistance that the speakers oppoThey match the signal coming from the amplifier. The most common values ​​are 4, 6, and 8 ohms, but there are also 2-ohm (rare) or 16-ohm (vintage) speakers.
