TAS5704 can drive two 8Ω speaker in parallel?

Hi,

 Can we use TAS5704 like the attached connection?

(my customer'd like to know that TAS5704 can drive two 8Ω speaker in parallel per channel. )

If can, is there any point that they should care about?

Thanks

  • Hello Go,

    The attached configuration is equivalent to have a 4Ω load in BTL mode, this is against the recommendation for this device in BTL mode. If 4 speakers are required for your application, I suggest you to  use a Single ended configuration. 

    Why don't you take a look to newer devices like TAS5760x?, these amplifiers are able to drive a 4Ω load in BTL mode. 

    Best Regards,
