Hi,
Last time I did a serial config. to my speakers (pls see the image below) but the sound comes only when my volume pot is at max. I cannot fade the volume from low to loud since my volume pot. works like a switch. When volume is at min its off, and when volume is at max its on, but no way to make it loud gently like with a pot based on the pcb for exemple (if we take a scale from 0 to 12, volume min is 0 and volume max is 12, so I've to put my volume pot to 11 to have sound, before no sound at all, and from 11 to 12 the volume has no level difference, so like I said, it's like a switch...)
When I had only one mono speaker of hm 3W, the same potentiometer worked fine (I also tryed it with a 4ohm smaller speaker). I could gently fade the volume from low to high like with any other pots, but now I have two speakers and maybe its too much for that pot (whitch is 500ohm / 1,3W).
Btw, my speakers are 6ohm each, maybe this pot cannot handle a total of 12ohm...
Maybe I should buy a vol. pot with more watts (maybe more than 5W)?
