tblake10 Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 A while back forum member djk gave these instructions for deriving a center channel with a Mcintosh mc2100 amp: PWK had a method of driving a center channel from a two channel amplifer that had output transformers (like your McIntosh MC2100). Hook the Klipschorns to the 4Ω taps for the left and right channels.Hook an 8Ω resistor to the 16Ω tap of the left channel, and another 8Ω resistor on the 16Ω tap of the right channel. Hook the other ends of both these resistors to the wire going to the positive terminal on the Heresy, and the negative terminal of the Heresy to the 'common' terminal (ground) of the McIntosh. Use 25W/8Ω resistors for a 100W~150W McIntosh. This worked great, and thanks to djk. My question now is what resistors would be used to do this with a 50W Mcintosh MC250?

djk Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Same proceedure and values should work just fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
