Pretty modest figures to be honest. Weird how the subs get less power than the main speakers!

My thoughts entirely!! I swear the Gf-9696 with no subs sounds better! (To my ears anyway)Reli said:It could explain why they're so quick to distort
Oh noooooo.....this thread has been resurrected from the spat pile....Yeah, @ 4 OHMS you could get 28 real world watts from the 4 woofers combined but the design does have its real world benefits too. 4 drivers working together will be more efficient overall than 2 larger drivers while being able to move more air. The primitive horn loaded tweeters are very good at boosting acoustic output to keep up with the woofers but the speakers that SHARP used were absolutely trash. Throw them in front of a train & replace them with a good mid-bass/mid woofer @ 2 OHMS & off you go.
The great thing about the 777, contrary to the opinions of some, is that they can easily drive 2 OHM woofers across all 4 channels. I've done it twice now over months of use & no ill effects at all. This puts the 777 to the 45 watt mark, full tilt. The caps & chips can handle the juice & It does make a big difference with the right woofers....
The preamp & the decks are very good quality for a blaster & even some mid range home audio of the time. The speakers are really the only bad move that hamstrung the poor triple7.
It is indeed fact that the shallow scoops of the sub-woofer section does provide a wave-guide function that is equivelant to a very shallow horn that boosts acoustic output by a couple of decibels. That's why a 777 has more of a bass stack sound than a traditional 2-way blaster, like an M90...
Of course, we all know an M90 will just bludgeon the 777 in its stock form but a 4x2 OHM setup with really efficient skins would stand up to an M90, at least get close...

I can't see why not if the AMP circuits are the same across all versions. Huge heatsinks too. Played lots of heavy bass tunes & opened it up to see if the sinks got warm at all & NO they didn't....even the IC's were cool to the touch & no problems...riker1068 said:

Oh & just to set some peeps straight, once & for all, now I've used these 2 OHM BOSE woofers, all 4, with no problems & plenty of power, for 16 months now. Would love to take on a C-100 in overall loodness & sound quality. I know the 777 will sound awesome & loud, regardless.....
Video coming soon, shot tonight to mark 16 months @ 2 OHMS x 4 channels & M70 tweeters with a single order polyester film cap for crossover & horn loaded in the original tweeter locations.
Hopefully you can see the woofers hop. I tried to get an angle that would show how much those cans move.

The Middle woofs in my 777 are exactly the same as the ones I loaded into your 4360....That's why going past +2 BASS on that monster, the woofers go crazy, too crazy.....There is literally so much bass it maxes out the woofers to their physical limits so you have to be a bit careful when cranking the bass beats...riker1068 said:
