Here's a link that I had bookmarked, and it will help you out.

For fun at lunch in high school one of my friends and I would draw circuit diagrams with resisters in both parallel and series, and then challenge the other to compute the total resistance of the network.

JC - could you please provide some more details on connecting them "in parallel" vs "in series"? How would I actually wire under each sceniro and is there a performance advantage on one vs the other? I am planning on using the Denon 3808.

Also, if the centers are an older version (TI) and my m60s are v2, would that be an issue?


Scotwell, older VP150 center speaker models with the latest M60 version will provide you with the same benefits; they aree compatible. Your Denon could drive them even if they were connected in parallel which is more demanding because of the lower resistance. A parallel connection is the way which should be normally used.

Mark provided us with a clear connecting sketch of both options; thanks Mark !

Have a superb weekend, All !

Did he? Cam's link shows a complete loop back to the receiver. Mark's drawing shows the wiring terminated at the second speaker.

Is there a difference between the two or are they the same? Electronically challenged minds want to know...

Fred, the only difference is that mine is clearly better \:\) .

Cam. If we go that route, I think I'll ignore the wiring entirely and move back to the Caregiver thread. Definately better!!
