welcome to the forum first off . and YAY quantum board question!!!

yes.. you could run both of the 132's and 288's in series on a single driver... the hlg-320h-c1750 is the perfect match... 36v+36v+52v+52v= 176v the max is 183v on that driver.. ( guesstimate on the 52v since 1400 51v and 2100 is 53v for the 288's ) at 1750ma each 132 is roughly at 60watts.. and each 288 is roughly 90watts. your running the 132's at their recommend ma.. the 288's is just under the 2100ma avg.

since you are thinking parallel( I'm guessing that's what you mean by LG'S 5 way wago) you gotta do dual drivers... 36v and 54v won't play nice wired that way.. hlg-240h-54 for the two 288's and a HLG-120h-36 for the 132's.. both of those would give you the power to almost max them out.. ( the 288's can hit 150w but that's pushing the efficiency down running that hard.)

dimming wise on all 3 drivers would be a A type or a B type. A type have internal dimming knobs built into the driver... two downsides are you got to have access to it to dim the light.. and you can only dim the current to 50%... plus is you can actually over draw on it.. getting slight more power from the driver... on a B type it comes with wire leads you attach a potentiometer to.. 100k ohm liner taper potentiometer is what you need for a single driver.. if you want two B types on same dimmer, you use a 50k ohm liner taper.. only real down side is not being able to over amp like a A type.. or solder on a potentiometer( can suck if you never done it) awesome thing about B type is you can make that lead to where ever you want the dimmer placed.. another plus is you can dim it down below the 50%... should be able to go all the way down to 10% ( normally we put a 10k ohm resistor on the potentiometer.. they say 100k but aren't always 100k, we bump that 10 so minimum becomes 10% over 1% but allows you to definitely hit the 100%)

I got so happy about a QB question I don't known if I answered every question for ya I'm a QB nut if you haven't noticed yet!! I'm waiting on them to drop the new boards here soon!!! so I can add to my 4 288's I got atm..

again welcome and keep the questions coming!!!
