Wiring a DS18 Pro Series GodZilla Jr Chuchero

[@devanandramnarine3742]

Great stuff, do tweeters affect ohm load. If you connect a 4ohm tweeter and a 6.5 speaker in parralell would it be 2ohms or 4ohms

[@bobbertomster]

Nice setup, i want to connect 2 tweeters in serie, so i put the 2 included capacitors in parallel on the positive and the tweets in serie? Or just no capacitors and turn the hpf up to 5khz or so on my full range amplifier.

[@vipautonyc-chucheroworld-jimmy]

just remove 1 capacitor and wire tweeters in series, tune hpf crossover to about 4khz. *reach out to my ig if you need further assistance 😀.

[@MrShok888]

i need to start this down here! thanks for sharing!

[@williamcenteno4873]

I have 2 tweeters and and a driver in which they’re all 8ohms, assuming I connect the 2 tweeters in series to the driver in parallel, what is the resulting ohms in this setup? I have an amp that outputs 1600 @ 4ohms bridged and want to ensure im connecting the speakers to the amp correctly and maximize the power being delivered

[@vipautonyc-chucheroworld-jimmy]

5.33 ohms

[@seacheeks]

do i have to solder the tweeters ? or can i use wire around the lil battery thing

[@vipautonyc-chucheroworld-jimmy]

if soldering is not available, use crimp connection. use a method that will guarantee conductivity

[@Qejee]

So the (+) of the tweeter with the capacitor goes to the (+) of the horn driver? Then the (-) of the tweeter with the capacitor goes to the (+) of the second tweeter then connect the (-) of the second tweeter to the (-) of the horn driver? Is this correct? Or off

[@vipautonyc-chucheroworld-jimmy]

yes that is correct sir

[@585Lowrider]

I've been trying to figure this out with my horn driver. I bought a box from somebody and thought the driver was bad but its not, it sounds like a tweeter. I thought the compression driver supposed to be loud. Could something be wired wrong? Or does it have the the wrong capacitor on the driver.

[@vipautonyc-chucheroworld-jimmy]

using the proper capacitor is critical, its either going to sound good or be damaged. you can look online for guides for proper selection.

[@vipautonyc-chucheroworld-jimmy]

what's inside, how is it wired, what is the impedance?

[@585Lowrider]

@vipautonyc-chucheroworld463 two mids 2 tweets and a driver. Mids are one channel. The tweets and driver on one. The impedance im not sure. I didn't check. I'll check when I get home later.

[@585Lowrider]

@vipautonyc-chucheroworld463 the capacitor on the driver is "spirit 225j 250v" that's all that was on it.

I want to connect 2 super bullet ds 18 twiters to my 4 channel amp how do I do that when I’m already using all my connections on my amp with my 2 6x9 and 2 5.25

[@vipautonyc-chucheroworld-jimmy]

connect one tweeter to any channel

[@MeganChetty-e2m]

Hey guys, is it possible to wire 4 pro mids and 4 bullet tweeters to a 4channel?

[@vipautonyc-chucheroworld-jimmy]

yes , that would be excellent.

[@tiffanyguarneiri5944]

So the side with the capacitor is positive?

[@vipautonyc-chucheroworld-jimmy]

yes sir, manufactures will put the cap on the + input

[@obs_vega5704]

I have a 4 channel amp 1600 watts 2 6.5 ds18 2 ds18 tweeters Can I run the tweeters to a Chanel each ?

[@vipautonyc-chucheroworld-jimmy]

Yes absolutely, that will work well

[@RealGraffz]

Hey man Im pretty new with this, so if i want to connect 4 speakers and 2 twiters to a 4 channel amp, how would you do it?

[@vipautonyc-chucheroworld-jimmy]

Speakers on 2 channels, tweeters on other 2 perfect setup with flexibility on tuning

[@speedboatcig946]

Or, get a crossover built for component set ups. There are 2 ways and 3 ways depending on your speakers.

[@jaysonwilliam850]

What was the wire gauge? Or what wire gauge do you think is best?

[@vipautonyc-chucheroworld-jimmy]

I use 14awg most of the time, on competition speakers I use 12awg. On subwoofer I also use 12awg, on competition subs 10awg

[@jaysonwilliam850]

@@vipautonyc-chucheroworld-jimmy Thanks for the speedy reply. I'm don't have a competition level build so I'll just get the 14 gauge. Again Thanks for the help

[@vipautonyc-chucheroworld-jimmy]

@@jaysonwilliam850 your welcome. btw you don't have to use dedicated speaker wire, any stranded copper wire is excellent.

[@Dundem1]

what kind of 4channel AMP, did you run with this setup.

[@vipautonyc-chucheroworld-jimmy]

I usually recommend 1000 - 2000 watts for these products. 250 - 500 rms x4 is appropriate.

[@jose-yz7le]

Can you put a super tweeter n a mid together ?

[@vipautonyc-chucheroworld-jimmy]

you can connect any speaker together as long as your amplifier can handle it. as well they will share same frequencies coming from amplifier. in theory you can connect an infinity amount of speakers to any amplifier.

[@jose-yz7le]

@@vipautonyc-chucheroworld-jimmy thanks brother just finished connecting deaf bonce neos and super tweeters together sound real nice with their amp 👌🏻

[@skysurfs3181]

How do u wire tweeters to mids?

[@vipautonyc-chucheroworld-jimmy]

the same way you wire the midrange speakers to amplifier, positive connection to positive output of amplifier ( +) negative connection to negative output of amplifier.

[@juliomoreno5370]

@@vipautonyc-chucheroworld-jimmywhat if no amp

[@vipautonyc-chucheroworld-jimmy]

@@juliomoreno5370 no amp = no audio output 😂

[@tiffanyguarneiri5944]

How do I know which side is positive and negative on the tweeters

[@vipautonyc-chucheroworld-jimmy]

Usually it's marked with either + or a red stripe If neither is present assume right is positive.

[@vipautonyc-chucheroworld-jimmy]

sometimes - negative terminal is smaller.

[@tiffanyguarneiri5944]

So the side with the capacitor is positive?
