Here you go: http://techpreservation.dyndns.org/schematics/Motorola.htm

Being that old, most likely the speakers are probably 8ohm good luck finding those. You can use 4ohm but you may hear some distortion at higher volume levels.

SOURCE: amp 4 a Kicker S17L7

just make sure your kenwood amp can at least handle a 2ohm stereo load.Most amps now are able to .Your amps manual should list this or go online and check for that model .You basically have 2 subs in one allowing you to use one sub box in stereo mode.And just hook it up like two speakers left and right ..make sure amp has a crossover so that you only get bass at your woofer

My QSC PLX 2502 amp completely blew. Channel 1 has been giving me problems for a year and I have had the amp about 3 years. This past week it drove into the red so much and I could not stop it. Well now...

You should NOT drive the amplifier into the clipping mode continuously. There is a possibility that you have fried your speakers or that they are the real problem. You haven't told us what you were driving, however this amp will deliver 450 Watts per side RMS at 8 ohms which means your speakers have to be rated at least that much RMS power for continuous. When speaker voice coils fry, they can wipe out amplifiers. Let us know what speakers you are using and how they are configured. This amp is going to be expensive to repair I can tell by looking at the schematic: Here is the schematic:

http://elektrotanya.com/qsc_plx2502.pdf/download.html

Scroll down to "get manual" and click to download it. IGNORE other download links.

This amp has circuits to boost the power supplies to the amps to handle the peaks. It is rather complex but the schematics are complete and have good explanations... some of the best I have seen. There are going to be a lot of destroyed components and great care has to be used after repair to "cold start" the unit to make sure nothing else is bad or it will blow up again. Most people do NOT have trouble with the QSC amps... so do tell me what speakers you are using and how they are configured so we can verify the design is correct. This amp is rated for 8 ohms so USUALLY only ONE speaker can be connected per side... and finding an 8 ohm speaker that can take 450 watts continuous RMS isn't easy. People fall for the advertising claiming "Peak" and "Program" power which are FAKE advertising... ONLY use continuous RMS power when sizing amps and speakers. There are MANY ways to cook out equipment... One is to boost the bass or the treble way up. Another is to NOT use balanced interconnect lines between mixers and your amps. Yet another is to NOT power ALL interconnected equipment from a single receptacle or power conditioning module. Please describe your setup further so I can help you more!

I just bought an 800RB (been WANTING one for DECADES, finally put "cash-on-hand" together with "the SWEET one came along"). I want to know if the speaker jacks for the 300-watt amp are...

Here is the schematic AND everything you need to know about the speakers:

http://elektrotanya.com/gallien-krueger_800rb_sm.pdf/download.html

Scroll down to "Get Manual" on the site and click on it to download. It appears that the MINIMUM impedance on the trebel upper set is 8 ohms and MINIMU on the woofer is 4 ohms at the jack in each case.

I just needed some help with wiring my p8002 rockford amp to 2 fosgate 10 inch subs i just bought. there 4 ohms a piece and dual voice coil. i dont know much about car stereos but people keep telling me...

Well i tried looking up that amp, but Fosgate sight is down. So assuming that the best power out of your amp is 2ohms off the bridged hookup, and the subs are 4 ohms per coil, the best way is to only use one side of each speaker and hook it straight the the bridge. Only using one hook up wont hurt anything, its just for giving you wiring options. And when adding up ohms of speakers, it goes like this. If you had two 4 ohm subs, that'll give you a 2 ohm load. If you hooked up all your hookups, it would be like having four 4 ohm subs, and would give you a 1 ohm load.

Hi i am looking for some motorola tweeters for dj speakers do you still do these

If you're looking for new tweeters, I'd start at e-bay, see if there's any that are matched with yours.

If not, look for (I presume) compression drivers, with the correct sensitivity (sound output at 1 watt) to your woofers. You may need to purchase an adaptor to make the new ones fit the horn.

Also, try to match impedance - if the old ones were 8 ohm, look for new ones that are 8 ohm. Use something different, and the crossover point won't be what's intended. It will either come in an octave too low (the tweeter would die) or too high (big hole in the frequency response).

I have 2 12 in kicker cvr tryna drop to lower ohm

http://www.colomar.com/Shavano/dvc_spkr_wiring.html

Use the above site for several wiring schematics on dual voice coil speaker hookups. It will show how to wire for different impedance.
Also, I think the CVR 12's come in 2 ohm and 4 ohm impedance. See if you can check yours to determine which you have....

Not really a problem want to know if I could add a extention speaker to the fender rumble 100 combo it has not ext. speaker out looking to add two 10 inch and if so how?

Hi there. If 10" speakers are 8 or 16 ohm, parallel them. If they are 4 ohm, series them. if "External speaker" output is rated down to 4 ohm. If no external speaker jack, you'll have to tap into existing speaker jack with a "Y". Check the minimum ohm load for the amp.
Thanks

Which speakers can I use?

You can use any wattage speakers as long as they are not less than the watts from your amp. However you can still use lower wattage speakers as long as you don't turn up the volume full or two loud! Otherwise your damage the speaker.
HOWEVER you must get the ohms matched up right. You must never connect any speaker with a low Ohm to a high rated amp. Or you will blow the output stage transistors or IC.
Most Amps are 8 ohms, so you could connect an 8 or 16 etc, but not a 4 ohm.
