Hi all.

I'd like to build a 4 x 6" or 4 x 8" cabinet to drive with a Noisy Cricket amp. I have both types of speakers all matched up and ready for wiring and boxing.

I'm going to maintain the 8 Ohm rating so my choices of wiring are...

Parallel/Series or Series/Parallel.

Does anyone know which might be preferable and why? Are there technical or aesthetic reasons for one and or the other?

Excited to hear the feedback! Some pun intended.....

Info I have found does not specify preference, per se. However, all diagrams, whether showing series/parallel, or parallel/series strongly recommend that all 4 speakers match in impedence and wattage ratings.

Seems that a good choice would be to try both methods to figure out which suits your ears best.

Cheers

I think you're right, I couldn't find anything specific either. Thanks for your feedback!
