4 speakers on a 2 channel amp

[BigAl 10+ year member]

Can this be done if all speakers are the same ohms. I have 2 pg rsd separates in the front doors and two alpine type s in the rear doors. I was wondering if I can run all four of these on a two channel amp. If so will I be compromising sq.

You can do it, but each channel will see 2ohms. I wouldnt do it though...

yes, it's fine.

You end up running the amp at 2 ohms stereo which will get a little more power out of it. THD increases slightly, but not enough to be even close to audible.

The only drawback is you can't fade.

Having rears at all compromises SQ.

and having the reas different from the front doesnt help either
