You can't change the ohm load of a speaker. What you can do, is get a second 8 ohm speaker to run with that speakers in series and you will get a total ohm load of 16 ohms.
To run them in series, simply wire the positive terminal of one speaker to the negative of the other speaker. One speaker will have an open positive terminal which you wire to the positive terminal on the amp, and same goes for the negative on the other speaker (to the amp's negative terminal of course).

What is UTF-8 and UTF-16?
UTF-8 is a variable length character encoding method for Unicode.. It is otherwise known as 8-bit UCS/Unicode Transformation Format. UTF-16 is another variable length character encoding method for Unicode, that is a stronger then UTF-8. It is otherwise known as 16 bit Unicode Transformation Method.
If you have a class b network 172.121.225.0 and you want to do subnetting of 130 networks how many bits are used for subnetting?
As we are using a class B network for the Subnetting and we have to make a total of at least 130 subnetworks...so, class B default subnet mask is 255.255.0.0 or 16 bits for networkingand we have to make 130 sunets. so it will come under the block size of 256 or we need 8 bits more to make 130 subnets.so our answer is 16+8=24ie, we will use subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 for this class B address.
What was the word length of Intel's 8088 microprocessor which powered the original IBM pc?
The Intel 8088 is generally considered to be a 16-bit processor (most registers were 16 bit registers), and therefore had a 16-bit word length, although its external data bus was only 8 bits wide.
How do you make a 16 ohm speaker 8 ohm?
You cannot make a 16 ohm speaker into an 8 ohm speaker. You would need to replace the voice coil. You can, however, put two 16 ohm speakers in parallel, and the equivalent impedance would be 8 ohms. The only remaining issue is frequency response, and that's a factor of speaker and enclosure design, so best is to use the exact speaker as originally designed.
How do you use 16 ohm monitor speakers with an 8 ohm powered mixer?
Just use it like an 8 ohm speaker or else connect two 16 ohm speakers in parallel to form an 8 ohm load. Parallel is positive to positive and negative to negative.
How many ohms would 2 16 ohm speaker cabinets and 1 8 ohm speaker cabinet calculate out to be?
If wired in parallel then 4 ohms.
Will wiring a 16 ohm woofer with a 16 ohm tweeter in parallel result in a total ohm load of 8 ohms?
If you mean as pairs, yes. put an 8 Ohm and a 16 Ohm speaker in parallel for each channel. The 16 Ohm speakers will take 1/3 the power and the 8 Ohm speakers will take 2/3 the power. The resulting impedance will be 5.33 Ohms.
What is the best setting for a peavey windsor half stack when you have one speaker that can handle 16 ohm and you can choose from 4 8 Stereo 2 cabinets and 16 ohm without blowing out the speaker.?
Windsor has a three way impedance switch, 4, 8 and 16. Use the 16.
Can you run 4ohm resistor to make 4 ohms speakers 2 ohm?
Yes, you can safely use a 4 ohm amp with one 8 ohm speaker, but you will not achieve full power. The 4 ohm amp is designed to supply a certain voltage into a 4 ohm speaker. Supplying that same voltage to an 8 ohm speaker will result in half the power, or -3dB. For maximum power, use a 4 ohm speaker, or two 8 ohm speakers in parallel.
Can resistance be added to speakers to make a 4 ohm speaker have an 8 ohm load?
You "can" add a four ohm resistor in series with a four ohm speaker, and make it look like an eight ohm speaker, however, the frequency response will not be the same. It is better to use to correct speaker for the amplifier, or use two four ohm speakers in parallel. That resistors power rating must exceed the rating of the speaker. Half the from the amplifier will go to the speaker, while half will go to the resistor, making it get quite hot.
What is the difference between a 8 ohm speaker and 12 ohm speaker?
Study ohms law to get your head around it.
Can 8 ohms horn driver work in series with a 16 ohms horn driver?
Yes, on 8 ohm horn driver will work in series with a 16 ohms horn driver, but it will not work well.An 8 ohm speaker in series with a 16 ohm speaker will only present a load of 24 ohms to the amplifier. (Assuming they have the same frequency to impedance curve.) That will result in one third the expected current, and one ninth the expected power. Also, since each speaker represents inductance, it will act in part as a filter, affecting the frequency reponse of the other speaker.
Will an 8 ohm speaker work with an 6 ohm amplifier?
Yes, but it will not be as loud as it would have been had a 6 Ohm speaker been used. Byt the way, the word 'Ohm' is capitalized, because it was someone's name.
What is the cost of a 3 watt 8 ohm speaker?
the basic operation of 3watt 8ohm speaker
Can you connect a 8 ohm speaker for a amp designed for a 4 ohm load?
You can, but the available power will only be about half of rated, and the frequency response will be slightly different. Better would be to connect two 8 ohm speakers in parallel, making an equivalent 4 ohm speaker.
