Amplifier specs??

[bcs350z 10+ year member]

I had a question about reading specifications. If the amps specs are this:

SPECIFICATIONS:

4 Ohm RMS Power: 2 x 75 Watts @ 13.8 Volts

2 Ohm RMS Power: 2 x 150 Watts @ 13.8 Volts

4 Ohm Bridged RMS Power: 1 x 300 Watts @ 13.8 Volts

I dont understand the 2nd rating, 2 ohms RMS power; How would you achieve a 2 ohm load without bridging? If you ran a 2 ohm load stereo, then the speaker would have to be a 2 ohm speaker, most components/speakers are all 4 ohm ratings. Might sound like a dumb question but i was just wondering.

Wire two 4 ohm speaker together in parallel = 2 ohm load ......

Wire two 4 ohm speaker together in parallel = 2 ohm load ......

BINGO!!! //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

he's talking about running highs off this amp....if he bridges, it won't be stereo anymore

as alpine said...you would want a 2ohm component set

Infinity Kappa's come in 2 ohm, as do ID Chameleon's.
