If I take the positive wires from two midrange speakers, rated at 125W RMS, 4 ohms, and put them both into a single channel of a four-channel amplifier rated at 150W per channel, and do the same with the negative wires, what are the consequences of this?
I understand that the amp will see a 2 ohm load, which the amp is rated for at the exact same RMS wattage output.
Will the amp be overdriven trying to power two speakers?
I'm concerned about the fact that amp is rated 150W RMS per channel (2 ohms or 4 ohms), and I'm hooking up two speakers rated at 125W RMS to one channel. Will high volume put stress on the amp trying to power two 125W RMS speakers, effectively a 250W RMS demand from a 150W RMS channel? Will the speakers simply receive less output overall due to the amps output limitation? Or both?
I apologize if this is a dumb question, please bear with me.
