[QUOTE="SPL Blazer, post: 5259481, member: 587873"] Wiring two 2 ohm speakers and a 4 ohm speaker to the same load isn't going to work like you think it will, but good luck with it. Same thing goes with wiring subs, you can't wire a dual 2 ohm coil sub and a 4 ohm sub. Any audio company will tell you the same thing. The lower resistance of the 2 ohm coils will draw more power than the 4 ohm coil will, no matter how you wire it the resistance of each coil won't change. Wiring them all to a 2 ohm load will give the amp a 2 ohm load, but the speakers will be using more power than they need, a lot more. You need a different amp. [/QUOTE]
