I mentioned in the original post about my highs I blew them over the holidays for what I know to be acouple of reasons one I upgraded my amp rack and steped up my amps I ended up with a qsc gx7 as my highs amp. I know its too much wattage but what can I do. I now have the gain at about 30% and I suspect my wiring was also wrong. I read somewhere that you should not wire a horn driver parallel with tweeter straight to the amp. Does this mean I should rewire them in Series and if so they both have caps that come with them do I remove them or just wire in series regardless??
There are different things that can blow up drivers. Over power is one-over excursion is another.
The size of the power amp is just thing. But DO NOT THINK that turning down the gain on the amp reduces the power!!!!!!!! IT DOES NOT.
You can turn the amp almost all the way down and it can still produce full output.
Did you have any limiters set? If so-how did you set them?
There is nothing wrong with wiring a HF driver directly to the amp. Whoever told you this is wrong.
Wiring them in series will reduce the voltage going to each one-but they will also be quieter at the same time.
A cap in series can help reduce the low freq-but the crossover in the DSP should do that.
A cap will introduce a 90* phase shift-which can possibly make it harder to do a proper alignment in the DSP.
But that also depends on the size of the cap-the impedance of the driver-the crossover freq in the DSP and so forth.
You have to understand all of this to do it "right".
GUESSING is NOT the way to go about it.
