Inca tech power into 4ohms

robertoshaba

As I understand it, the Inca puts out 50 watts at 8 ohms, but what it putting out at 4ohms?

AntiCrap

When it was tested by Noel it was only 75W , the new one is 120W into 4, Reason the Old Inca Tech Claymore had only a 160VA transformer the new E.W.A Claymore has a 300VA transformer.

P.S. note the Inca Tech Claymore was made in the day that speakers  were 8 ohm and more sensitive and a 4 Ohm load will make it get very hot with the poorly designed speaker of today with there impedance diving to sub 2 Ohm, crazy, design it right guys O.K.

Ok, I was thinking of running a set of Martin Logan electrostatic speakers, (89db, 4 ohms, 1.32 at 20khz). With my limited knowledge id guess that this would be hard work for the inca?

AntiCrap

I have done this and it will run well no problem, just runs a little warmer.

Thanks Col, kids are always complaining the house is to cold, I’ll tell them to stand by the amp

Build a 50W SECA fixed warm kids thus silent kids, and lovely music.

The 50W SECA can be made to give 50W into 4 ohm with lower voltage transformer but more AMPS oh sorry I love currents mmm tasty.

Hmm, what sort of money would it be to build myself the 50w seca?

No Raspberry Pi is a baby the Strawberry Pi is 128Bites and a sweeter device .And it can play MPi14 at 1GB/S makes  Flan Audio look crap and MP3 dustbin ready.

Can I get one on eBay?

How about the "The Wireless Garden Gnome Speaker"...? It (allegedly) "brings enchanted whimsy and music to your yard or garden". https://www.hammacher.com/Product/Default.aspx?sku=87974

A thing of beauty, Chris. You are clearly a man of taste.

I have one concern about inviting him into my garden.

The Buddhas are likely to kick his head in. And that wouldn't be nice.

Not guilty! It's that Ben, now he's finished his speakers he's modding gnomes...

Here's the new tweeter above the woofer set up...

I'm a little concerned as to what the bird is expecting

AntiCrap

One of these I suspect rare and odd.

Those ported enclosures always did sound a bit farty to me.
