If you hook up a 4 ohm 500 watt speaker to a 10k watt amp its gonna blow, and to get distortion from the amp you turn your bass boost up all the way as well as the gain sometimes not even that it depends on the amp, some are better than others. So to sum that up not just the load of the speakers which is running a speaker at 1 ohm and the amp can only go as low as 2 ohms. But even if you ran a 2 ohm stable amp at 4 ohms you are gonna get distortion from it if you don't set the gain properly and you run your system at full tilt with no tuning done to the amp.</p></blockquote><p></p>
