How do I unfuck this?

There used to be only 2 speakers connected to this cable, however I want to make it 5.

Testing it with only 3 it lost ~90% of volume

learn about speaker impedance, young Jedi - preferably, before you fuck the amp. They all have ratings, in Ohms, you cant just string them all the fuck together at random and hope it works, load on the amp needs to be balanced.

It looks like the left 2 speakers are in parallel and the one on the right is in series with them

I don't have any experience with speakers so I don't know if you want to wire them in series or parallel, google "speakers series or parallel" or something like that

You probably doubled or tripled the impedance. I'm not looking at your shitty wiring.

Pretty much this. And please don't make two threads for one question.

Two factologies:
1. The original two speakers (however they were connected) probably had a total impedance that was correct for the amp. If you want to connect more speakers, then you must make sure that the total connected speakers matches the previous impedance. And even if you do that (with a matching transformer) you will still lose a bit more total power, because transformers aren't 100% efficient.

2. Adding more speakers won't make an amp louder. The loudness is a function of amplifier power, and a different speaker doesn't change that. Adding speakers will give it slightly better low-frequency response (by allowing it to move a larger volume of air) but it's not a huge change.

Small amps driving huge speakers is a audiophile-niche thing: some people like the sound of big & under-driven speakers because they say the bass sounds more natural. It does sound different but I've never found it to be a big deal myself.

try this

Yeah OP do this, remplace two drivers in series with three drivers in parallel, from 8ohm to 1.33, the amp will LOVE IT.
Dont forget to turn the volume to the max before you test it.

Holy fuck OP the amount of cringe...

Just kys, you're unable to electronics
