[QUOTE="dragon.breath, post: 8857282, member: 582656"] You can run one front speaker and one rear speaker per amplifier channel in parallel so that each channel runs at 2 ohms. The ‘chain’ that you are talking about would result in a 8 ohm load per channel. Which would be safe, but not much power. Figure the 8 ohm power would be about half of the rated 4 ohm power, so 60w at 4 ohm would be 30w at 8 ohms, across 2 speakers would mean each speaker would get about 15w. [/QUOTE]
