Finally, someone getting rid of all the hypotheticals and actually testing it. Last guy was talking about a golf ball and air speed
🤣
Thank you for doing these tests I bought some 4 ohm mids and was wondering if I made the best decision I'm glad there is no big audible difference.
Glad you don't hear much of a difference so you don't regret it. For me, there is a huge difference. The 8 ohm is much more clear. I am also rocking a nice sound system, so that probably makes it so I can hear more.
@@kalypso4133no difference to me my 4ohm ds18 speakers is pretty clear here the 8ohm version and there’s literally no difference
@@luisbrain7011 gotta stop listening on full blast my guy. ear damage is a serious thing.
Love the Lego stand setup
I like these PRV's sound. I can definitely hear a difference in timbre between each. Which is a more accurate representation? The DJ will have to say.
Very nice video, but I would like to see you doing some testing with crescendo audio.
Love this channel bro making a big difference in car audio speakers love it !!!!!
My friend the difference is if you take 2 and 8 ohm speakers are that you can bridge them together that will make 4 ohms impedance so if you have a 4-ohm amp you can hook two speakers to one channel and stay at 4 ohms, or if the amplifier is a 2 ohm amplifier you can hook 4 speakers on each channel.
Neah look buttons! home work for you
Exactly
The one on your right (my left looking at the video) seems more clearer but I can't say either one is more louder than the other. 🤜🏾🤛🏾 Great video I'm impressed.
Now... The reason why the ohm load is different is (depending on the application) to help pull the maximum amperage out of the amp and also allows the ability to have more than one speaker on an amplifier.
And don't necessarily help them be louder but more powerful yes somewhat in a way louder but it is more about power handling capability and SPL and Xmas and a few other factors that is the reason why there is a 2 ohm and 4 ohm and also an 8-ohm version of speaker or driver or subwoofer etc.
Ummm... WHAT?
Impedance has ZERO affect on XMax, certainly (that's a mechanical design limitation). "To pull the maximum amperage?" You don't "pull" amperage. Period. The amplifier "makes" amperage (but some people correctly refer to it as "current"). When a lower impedance or larger load (not ohm load) is presented to the amplifier, it's going to make more current. A power amplifier is a voltage device, and their tendency is to keep the output voltage as close to its design specification as it can, by producing more current in the situation. Halve the impedance, double the current. Double the current, while maintaining the same voltage equals a doubling of power. Into an otherwise IDENTICAL driver (where absolutely nothing but the impedance changes, which requires and rewinding and rewiring of the voice coil, to keep the same inductance, mass, and XMax, this doubling of power will net a theoretical 3dB of output increase.
I don't even know how to respond to the last line of your comment. There are oftentimes multiple impedance versions of a given driver to facilitate multiple wiring configurations in different situations. Wiring schemes include series, parallel, and series-parallel, where multiple drivers of different impedances are necessary to arrive at a given, desired, impedance. Impedance also has zero to do with the power handling of a device, nor does it really affect the SPL potential of the device.
Thanks for the great videos. I look forward to the competitions. The difference in 4 ohm and 8 ohm speakers is the ohm load they put on the amplifier. The 4 ohm speaker will make the amplifier run in 4 ohm mode which is usually twice the power as it puts out in 8 ohm. So if you have two speakers a (4 ohm and 8 ohm)on the same amp but different channels, the 4 ohm channel is putting out double the watts as the 8 ohm channel. That means the 4 ohm speaker will be louder than the 8 ohm speaker but only by a few decibels. Also, when the amplifiers ohms are dropped from 8 to 4 to 2 or even 1 ohm the distortion levels usually increase in output. So using a 4 ohm speaker would double the power and increase distortion when comparing it to the 8 ohm. When comparing speakers the ohms need to be the same. Thanks again you've helped me choose which mids I'm going to purchase!
So are you saying @jadm the 8ohm would be better when you consider vocals?
@@dgfresh92 go for 6 ohm
Thank you for your advice but I got a question I can't get answered. Surely it is simple. A 8ohm speaker rated for 150watts rms will always need 150watts rms, even when wired down to 4ohm right? Or when wiring it down to 4ohm should I only give it 75watts now?
@@RandoManFPV Yes. That is what is rated doesn't matter wether you are in 8 or 4 ohm. Ohms are for figuring out which way you will run the speakers for the AMP. The AMP will tell you what OHM to run the speakers in for best or max output.
@@jadm4850 thanks man!I thought I had all this figured out haha. Heck I already knew the answer to my own question but the more I thought about it the more unsure I felt 😅
YO BRO ! PLEASE TRY THE DS18 PRO-NEO6r? I think what you just try in your other video is the Pro-FR6neo.. thanks watching from uae!
Now i know. Thank you for sharing this video Sir.
Do a review on the PRV Audio WG175Ph 150W 8-Ohms Tweeter/Horn Driver !!!
It does not matter about ohms. Ohms only determines how much resistance the speaker is. 4 ohm is easier to move than 8 ohms
They're both 250 watt drivers/speakers. They should produce same quality sound in design. It's totally depend on how much the powered amp can produce in 8 ohm or 4 ohm channels, and the wiring here too. Please check the amplifier power outputs in manual or specs! It's missed leading fact or myth busted!
Just started to check you out and you got some great content. Keep up the work.
4 vs 8 Ohm isnt really a power thing. if you close your eyes you can hear the difference between them. its not volume, its tone and texture of the different ranges. the 8 ohm sounded "thicker" at the lower ranges, but muffled the mids and highs. where as the 4 ohm lost some of the meaty bass, but gained more crisp sound in the mids and highs. when I put together a system a couple decades ago, I used 8 ohm subs and used 4 ohm mids and tweeters, I would have taken the tweets to 2 ohm but they just werent around back then really. but I had an incredibly rich sounding stereo. heavy base that you could feel passing through you, and crystal shattering highs. now I wish I could get something other than 2 or 4 ohm speakers for my motorcycle :(
Its the best comment on this video, Ive heard that too yesterday doing car audio and switching between 8 and 4 ohm subwoofer, 8 ohm just crashed it, you could close your eye and just relax deeping through that smoothness of bass vibrations, that meat! Difference in night and dat!!!! Even by not an audiophile person next to me. Otherwise wiring 4ohm speaker the bass was easier controlled right and louder, but it was only loudness and not quality itself it was not comparable, maybe some mids and highs would be better at 4ohm but not for a bass, it needs to be hell thick and dynamic which only maybe top high end 4ohm speaker give you, comparable to casual 8ohm. Peace out! And have a good 8ohm subs in ur trunk!
Thanks this helped me how to design a sound setup for a pinball machine..understanding the output. Now are those driving by individual amps? If I remember on my home theater amp I can set the ohm ratings per channel though. I also bike too.. ride safe
It took me a while to finally find this comment. I have a pair of beautiful PHD AF 12" 4ohm each, that will be pushed by RF T20001BD. The amp should give them enough power at 8ohm load. What you think?
@@sebastianfonk1281 I havent dealt with Rockford Fosgate a whole lot. especially this high of wattage as most my experience with them is in the motorcycle applications. they are good but they always seemd to be a bit "meh" on note for note quality, but they have among the best for controls.
being as you are using it for base, it would fall more to type of music. Rock/metal should have a decent snappiness to it. overly muted "rap" style base will likely be snappier, but thats not the general goal of rap style music where it tends to be long low notes.
but would def suggest getting a good crossover to delete the ranges you dont want pushed through subs. even if you dont hear those notes anyways, if the signal contains those ranges it will reduce your clarity of the notes you want coming from them.
make sure the box is properly built whether ported or un-ported. I wouldn't go with off the shelf boxes unless the box is specifically built by the maker of the speaker. the boxes off the shelf will 99.9% of the time be the wrong size and give to much air or not enough and/or have the wrong port sizes.
you should be fine over all as long as you don't try to rush from the point you are at to a finished system.
Cool Channel. Yes you're right in a way about them souning the same. A 4ohm and a 8ohm can sound the same in a sense, but for example. If you take the channel with the 8ohm speaker and set the amp to about 44.72V that will give you 249wrms. Take the channel with the 4ohm and do the same, you will definitely hear the difference because at 44.72V you'll be at almost 500wrms, but i would do it in short bursts. Try it and see.
I like this vid. So many people misunderstand ohm law etc. and how a 2 omh speaker is not automatically louder than a 4 ohm or even an 8ohm of the same speaker. 8 ohm is actually easier on the components and amps, etc., and 8 ohm also is easier to control the flow of power than either 4 ohm or 2 ohm. The lower the ohm rating of a speaker, etc., inherent is a reduction in clarity, etc.--quality--and the power is also harder to control and the ohm rating goes down.
majority of car stereo amps (stock stuff) do not boost the voltage in the amp section (good amps do), so they only have 12V, 4Ω easily wins to drive more power in this situation. This is why there is 4Ω speakers. And as Resonant Engineering said, lower ohms can be higher power rating, its not just ohms law, its also the power law.
@Jim Catanzaro Ya. I was building systems back in the '90s. Maybe I'm getting old, but every system I hear runnint A/B amps always sound better than even the best class D; although, plenty of people will disagree. And that's fine. they can disagree all they want until they hear a sub running off a/b and same for door speakers.
a/b amps push-pull by their design. It's more dynamic, they are faster, which means speakers run faster, and subwoofer sounds amazing on an a/b.
@@RobHTech so if my dead unit is a class d is it worth using an a/b amplifier?
@@RobHTech a/b is the best, yes, some people can't hear the difference, I definitley can, I've been doing systems since 1980
@@RobHTechi agree with you..an a/b has sound quality ...
I always enjoy watching your videos. In the beginning of the video you said that one is 4 ohms and the other is 8 ohms. You also stated that they are on the same channel and if that's the case you will have a 12 ohms load on that Channel. If you have a 4 channel amplifier connect each speaker to a separate channel like 1,2 channel or 3,4 channel because those channels will have the same tuning. The amplifier will put out it separate power due to the load impedance of each speaker. Thar way the test will be more fair. I am not expecting double the power, double loudness from the 4 ohms speaker at all. And for the people who are commenting about 8 ohms lasting longer than 4 ohms. The truth is it really doesn't matter. If you match your amplifier properly with your speaker's impedance and rms wattage output then you shouldn't have any problems of amplifier overheating or speakers burning.
Yes im running on 1 channels and buttons is separating them its not parallel only if I press both itll be parallel
Still not a fair comparison you need to make sure the euch speaker is getting the same amount watts
I love the set up bro. I have 2 12'midbass 4ohm and 2 12'midhigh 8ohm
2 10' vocals 4 ohm 2 8' midbass 4ohm 2 8' midhigh 6 tweeters 3 horns
All the ohms do is lower resistance which truly only affects once amp is added in the equation but only as far as how many watts the amp can put out but also only if underpowered
The only difference i hear is frequency response is way better on the 8ohm…the 4 ohm is kind of beaming at certain frequencies. As an audiophile i choose the 8ohm for clarity reasons but for power and noise value i say choose the 4ohm. Its cheaper to make given watts @ 4 ohm than @ 8ohm to make 200w rms @ 8ohm is probably 4x the price. Amp to speaker matching is very important as well.
Beaming is a function of speaker size and shape, not impedance.
THIS!! ^ Thank you. I was looking for the "mash forehead on keyboard" button... Some of the ideas people get...
The Dj's instrumentals and music is the greatest I've ever heard in my life, that guy really knows his stuff.
I can hear a difference in frequency response
What ohm should I use when replacing factory speakers? I do have a aftermarket radio but no amp. Just radio and speakers
thanks for the video quick comparison of ohms .
Can you try the Genius Audio GPRO-M178 they look beast
thanks for the vids mike
guys .an 8 ohm speaker is 3db more efficient than a 4 ohm..it this amp is 250w at 4 ohms it means at 8 ohms is 125 watts.even the 8 ohm driver receives half the powet it plays the same loudness with the 4 ohm.this means that with 8 ohms the amp will be much less stressed than with 4 and it will play cleaner. an additional benfir is the damping factor of the amplifier will be double at 8 iohms.of course the current demand from the cars electrical system will be half for the same loudness.if you add two 8 ohms drivers in paralel eveything will be as a 4 ohm one but it will be 6db louder which is a huge difference
A couple of factors. First off, it will depend on speaker efficiency, if you have a 4ohm driver with a lower efficiency rating than a 8 ohm drive that has a higher rating, then the amount of output will be close. Also the amplifier has a part in it. Not all amps produce double the power when you cut the impedance in half. Some will, some won’t. So it depends on the amp’s out put on impedance and the efficiency of the speaker’s Thiel small parameters. That’s why some speakers sound louder than others with the same amplifier. Efficiency = power output
"NOT ALL AMPS DOUBLE THE POWER WHEN YOU CUT IMPEDENCE IN HALF"
i would recomend you to take a look again at ohms law, the amplifier doesn't "doubles" the power when you go from 8 ohms to 4. The power is already there and it will not be doubled, it's simple ohms law and it states that "the power decreases if the resistance increases". So if you go from 4 to 8 you are increasing IMPEDENCE hence power decreases. And every amp in the world does this and not just few amps like you mentioned. Peace.
Very good answers - you would choose your speaker based on the amplifier's output rating i.e. 4 ohm / 300 W RMS 2 ohm / 600 W RMS and so on.
@@burhanuddin127 hello i have a question and hope i get an answer and is that i have a taramp 800x4 2ohms and i have installed already 4 prv neodymium that are 4 ohms with 2 PRV super tweeters that are 8ohms and i’m planning changing them to another prv model and i wanted to know which speaker is better for me an 8ohms or a 4ohms?
How do I contact you
4ohms @350-450 rms
2ohms @300-350 rms
From 700 watts rms amp designed for 2ohm.
Do the same test and use a smd to verify the rms coming out to each speaker
Most power amp manufactures list the power output at 4 Ohm, and 8 Ohms. Sound pressure level i.e. Decibels is measured on a logarithmic scale, so doubling the power will not double the sound pressure level. That's why the volume control on a receiver or amp is an audio tapper (Logarithmic) and not a linear tapper, Potentiometer or rheostat. The speaker's voice coil sensitivity rating also affects the sound pressure level output. The higher the sensitivity rating, the louder your speaker is. An average speaker comes with a sensitivity of around 87 dB to 88 dB. A speaker with a sensitivity rating over 90 dB is considered excellent.
The less ohms the more power it draws from the amp mike it might not be noticeable at low volume but crnk that volume up and youll smell some smoke from the 4ohm speaker first.if you have really good amp and you want more speakers you can have 4 8ohm speakers per channel to a final load of 2 ohm per channel vs only 2 4ohms tht make the same 2ohms final load per chanel so you tell me if 8 speakers vs 4 speakers makes diference with 8 speakers if you have the room you.can have way more punchy middbass or nice and clear vocals
well said. running higher impedance speakers also allows amp relax and be more efficient less current draw and cleaner sound 2 ohm vs 4, 4 sounds cleaner amp runs cooler and efficiency goes up less taxing on the poor at best electrical system most have. once you go full retttard and spend thousands you care much less about this and just want the sound you like no concern given to the price or efficiency. small sacrifice of db allows for cheaper build too for beginners who cant afford big 4 and 4/0 and mechman alts and... it never ends but a budget multi amp system can be built on stock electrical if done right and using these options to your advantage. at the sacrifice of a little spl but you can always buy more later. car audio does not have to be for the wealthy alone just read more books and stop believing everything you read in forums 90% is hogwash you dont need 155db @ 30hz to have fun with this hobby but it does help ;P
and i band pass my mids they get mids only if you have too large of a range per cone it gets muddy and builds more destructive heat ( your number 1 enemy is clipping number 2 is heat ) and i can grossly over power my mids by keeping them this way you want highs get some tweets never full range mids with real power once the magic smoke comes out its a paper weight
Hi I have a small doubt. please give your expertise,I am planning to build a diy soundbar with 2.0 amplifier board (stereo left n right channel), can I add 1 woofer to the amp,(thereby total 3 speaker for a two channel amp). the impedance of amp is min 8ohms..
@@fusion_fever1592 im not expert but if the amp is capable of bridge mode i think you might be able to ger away with it but keep in mind you must add something that cuts the mids and hight only to the subwoofer.. i sugest get a 3 or 4 channel amp and play it safe if you dont know what youre doing or do some more reserch before damaging your equipment
@@michaelsegarra2709 thanks for the reply, the way my mind is thinking after watching lots of UA-cam video on impedance is as following,the amp is a 2 channel stereo with 8ohm impedance,so I will a 8ohm speaker for the left channel,and now I will add my 4ohm woofer and a 4ohm speaker to right channel in series, thereby giving a total impedance of 8ohm on right channel (4+4 =8),thus meeting the requirements of the stereo amp at 8ohms..
I heard the 4ohm just a tad bit louder i would rock that 4ohm
Ok all amps are rated to do power at certain ohm loads eg the amp will says 500 at 4 ohm and 1000 at 1 ohm the speakers will tell the amp what power to put out so yes the 4 ohm will play louder than the 8 ohm on the same amp anyway great video watching from trinidad and just a little advice doubling the power on a speaker doesnt mean it will play twice as loud it doesn't work that way
Exactly what Im trying to explain whole my life )
In my experience the more ohms the cleaner,. The less ohms the louder,. 4 will be louder than 8 but the 8 will sound more crisp

Maybe you could do 2 x 8 ohms wired to 4 ohms on one channel VS 1 x 4 ohm speaker. Or 2 x 4 ohm speakers wired to 8 ohms VS 1 x 8 ohm speaker.
Can I assume on a 5 channel cerwin Vega amp that I can run 2 x 10 inch subs at 2 ohms and mids at 4 ohms on the stereo channels? Or should I keep the sub channel at 4 ohms also?
Yes ! A real world test. Thanks
Great channel. New to your videos. Anytime i need info i check out your channel
Differed quality of sound from 4 ohms to 8 ohms.
One subwoofer is difference one frequency but midbase one 4 ohms is offer that resonance at 8 ohms is less .
16 ,8 ohms protect your amplifier but 4 ohms and under is more heat rapport with the power .
Home speakers are 6,8,16 ohms , cars and other place 4 ohms and under depend on environment
LOL, love the Lego's. Fun vids!
Do they make a good full range coax 6.5? I'm looking to replace my bike speakers.
What's the best way to power 4 8ohm speakers? 2) 6.5 and 2) 6×9

Higher ohms means less power draw, so in a power limited set up like a 70 amp alternator would I be better to use 8 ohm speakers and pump more power to the subwoofer? I don't like my music in my car very loud so volume wont be an issue.
I like 8ohm more for voice nd loudness’s i noticed in my experience and they are less likely to burn . Had a lot of 4ohms burn
Yes I run 8 ohm and my buddy has 4 ohm mine are way louder then his and he even has a bigger amp on them then I do
Your speakers were 8 ohm and louder than your friends 4ohm speaker. .I always thought 8 ohm was more clear and .the 4 ohm wil distort first at higher volume @@michaeltursack5470

The setup as you have it, i like the 4 ohm sound better then the 8 ohm.
Nice video watching from philippines 🇵🇭
so what your saying the more thinner the paper on the speaker right the louder it's gonna be??
Double sound energy is 3db, the difference between some 4 and 8ohm speaker drivers. You starts hearing double the loudness at 9db. So yes, you are correct it is difficult to hear 3db difference in volume. When you played both drivers at the same time we could hardly hear the change in volume because double the energy is 3db. However it is measurable and 3db difference is significant.
What people want to say is....if you give a 8ohm speaker 200watts it will play loud but if you remove the 8ohm speaker and you add a 4ohm speaker your amp wattage will go up a bit so it will play louder.... but if you give a 8 ohm speaker 200 watts and the same 200 to a 4ohms there will be no difference
hey my friend, you are the man
thanks for the video ... superb
The 4ohm sounds little higher. Can you test you Pioneer TS s20 and TS s20c tweeters.
Heres the thing , your impedance changes with music so its almost never anywhere near 4 or 8 ohms , especially with midrange and higher frequency. If you notice they test alot of amps at 100hz and below to get the minimum ohm load and make better numbers for the amps power rating. If you dont understand what i mean put an ohm meter on the speakers terminals while playing a song. The ohms jump all over the place .
Nice video watching from Trinidad 🇹🇹
Trinidad here too man

I Have 2 8inch Prv 8mb450 Nd A Jensen 1200w mono Amp .will the 8s Be Fine if ran on This amp
It would have been better if you recorded a waveform so we could see the dynamic range for us who's weren't watching with an optimal speaker setup.
I got two b&c 10 they are supposed to be 8ohms but my multimeter read 4.8 on both speakers it’s that normal ?
My think is my soundigital 2000.4 4ohms
Give me 1000 at 4 ohms
But when I connect my two speakers it go to 2.2 ohms it’s that normal ? Or how you guys recommend me to connect them ?
Thanks
Yo Mike what song were you using to test?
Do 2ohm vs 8ohm ... 2 4ohm in parallel vs Series.. for sound quality
Bro, Can i use 3-ohm jbl gto 629 coaxial speaker on 4-ohm stock head unit? their any damage happen to the head unit?
I also would like to know, have the same situation over here 👍 thx
What About db that makes a difference too or I just imagine it
Ok I don't get what you mean about same power same channel. So an amp that does 125w at 4 ohm and 65w at 8 ohm will not the 8ohm sound drastically under powered while the 4ohm is full and punchy? Or will the still sound the same? Just curious
Amp output changed when ohm rating changes.
It IS louder (4ohm).
Sucks in more juice out of the amp.
My question, can I put a 4ohm speaker in a cabinet that had a 8OHM speaker? Do I need to rewrite the box for a 4ohm! Right.
Question whats the better speaker
i built my own 3 way house speakers using 2 ,4 ohm 10 inch sub woofers for car audio and 2 6.5 midbass 8 ohm car speakers and 8 ohm tweeters! i have a total of 400 watts i am pushing with my house stereo and they sound great , i also built my own crossovers i love my music loud and havnt had my stereo over half way yet on volume and it shakes my whole apartment building! lol
DO PRV VS BASS ROCKERS 🔊
What if you put a 4 ohm speaker on a 8 ohm transmitter?
I'm seeing a year later. But in subs 4ohm bass is deeper than 8ohm. You can wire down the 8ohm to a 4ohm if DVC. But 4ohm versus 8ohm huge difference
Hello, awesome video I’m gonna install 2 12” ev black label in my car 300 watts what’s a good amp to push them ? TIA
You can buy my 1000 watt 2 channel amp...60$..are you near georgia?
They sound similar because you are using the same power...the difference comes with the power ratings as you can send more wattage at 4 ohms...
What should I get for highs 4 ohms or 8 ohms?
What's the song @ 3:42?
Not even Shazam can help me. It keeps sending me to random junk.
It could be the type of music left was definitely getting more power the voice coil was really moving compared to the right but it was still just barely louder. On the second track the right side was player louder made no sense. I was listening through 6 four inch mids with tweets house system and I could barely tell the difference.
The question that should be asked is why are the majority of car speakers 4 ohm and not 6 ohm or 8 ohm which you find in most home hi fi speakers?
👍
same loudnes but 4 ohms is slightly liter than 8 ohms in producing sound quality.. and also maybe in the range level of volume will give more push on 8 ohms. same loudness but not same punch on the sound.
So whats better 4ohm or 8 ohm? idc about anything else. would just like to know whats better for clear sound.
8ohm better for clear sound
Do the sundown neo pro
A DB meter could've shown the loudness of each driver
Which is best 4ohm or 8ohm
Ive never herd this myth. Ohm is resistance only. It has to do more with the amps performance than the speakers.
Is cleaner sound at high levels the 8ohms
U TUBE COMPRESSION = DB Meter😊love the test idea don't now wattage VS ohm load
you got peoples attention teach them about ts parameters and using crossovers to play the exact sound range the mids are made for so they do not ruin them. like your content but i suspect this will do you some good too. anyway keep it up man.
pretend we are all brand new to this because those that are will be discouraged from the hobby when they duplicate what you are doing and there precious new speakers give up the ghost. take it or leave it i will still watch anyway
Haha, love your video, you look like a DJ but with speakers and buttons
Soooooo, what’s gonna be louder in my truck with an amp??????
What head unit are you using? I though that mattered 😄 Supposedly for home use 8ohm is better and vehicles 4ohm....
Hi Everyone .. can i use 4 ohms tweeter in ALTO TS315 speaker ?
How do PRV compare to so called Audiophile drivers??? 👍👍
