Can you run one speaker off two channels?
Summary of Connecting 2 speakers There are only really two ways to connect 2 speakers to one amplifier – either in parallel or series. If each speaker has an impedance of 8 ohms or more, then you can generally connect them in parallel.
How do I connect two audio amplifiers?
Run speaker wire from the back of one amplifier into input A on the back of the switch box, making sure to connect right to right and left to left, and positive to positive and negative to negative. Run speaker wire in exactly the same way from the back of the second amplifier into input B.
How to mix two stereo audio outputs into one stereo output?
Combine the 2 stereo (L1+R1, L2+R2) line signals into 1 stereo (L+R) signal to feed into your 2 channel amp and then into 2 speakers by putting a 5k resistor plus a non-polarized 10 uF capacitor in series with each MP3 Trigger output line.
Can you combine two sound inputs into one speaker?
Can I use this, or something similar, to simultaneously feed two inputs into one set of speakers? I have the Klipsch ProMedia 2.1 system which has a stereo 3.5mm male connector. I’d like send the sound from my PC 3.5mm stereo female, and my bluetooth adaptor, which will be connected to my Echo Dot, to those speakers.
Can a passive mixer be used with diodes?
As mentioned in the comments, diodes are not the way to go. They will massively corrupt your audio signal, and it will just sound utter rubbish. The simplest method is to use a passive mixer. That simply consists of two resistors per channel: You can tie all the ground wires together without resistors.
Do you need to connect two audio sources?
I need to connect both sources to my single pair of speakers. Ideally, I’d like to be able to hear both sources at the same time, but this isn’t completely necessary. I ABSOLUTELY do not want to have to press a button to manually switch. I don’t need anything fancy—-no individual volume control or microphone inputs or anything like that.
