Help me figure out ohms!

Make fun all you want but do you know how hard it is to burn a HU? I hooked all that stuff up today and it does sound good, nice and clean even at high volume and clean tight accurate bass. There was one time on an even cheaper sony xplod headunit I ran 2 door speakers, 2 8 inch subs, 1 12 inch sub, 2 4 inch speakers and the HU wasn't even affected at all, and I ran it like that for 1 year and that same headunit is in my car with NOTHING wrong with it. If you ask me y'all don't know what y'all are talking about because you're just quoting what you saw on the internet. I have 2 tweeters, 2 door speakers, 2 little speakers behind the seat and that sub and there are no probs whatsoever. JVC is a lot better than sony, so if sony can do it with no problems, so can JVC.

Man look, in all seriousness, its not going to work well. You don't need to invest thousands to have a nice sounding system but you need to invest a little. I have equipment I will sell cheap if you are interested if not, then limit some of the speakers you are using to lessen the strain on your hu. Remember, more does not always equal better. What are you hoping to achieve in the short term, and what are your long term goals?

As already mentioned...

Front Right Channel: One 4 Ohm Tweeter = 4 ohm

Front Left Channel: One 4 Ohm Tweeter = 4 ohm

Rear Right Channel: Two 6 Ohm Speakers = 3 ohm

Rear Left Channel: Three 6 Ohm Speakers = 2 ohm

You are going to be lucky to see 10w and probably less to each set. It is probably going to sound like poo and most likely lead to an early death of your headunit. I'm not trying to bust your balls here but you have to be realistic.

Hey everyone. I want to apologize, I noticed I seem like a troll and a total behind about this thread, and I'm sorry. Thank all of y'all for y'alls input. I took y'alls advice and I just got two 6.5" Sony Xplod 4 ohm speakers running off my JVC headunit, and it sounds better than all those speakers did. I apologize, next time I won't be as defensive if something like this is brought up by me or anyone else. I definitely don't want to be disliked on a site like this because I love car audio as much as the next guy, and I love this website and I love discussing car audio. So if you all would forgive me, I would greatly appreciate it. I was a noob haha but I've realized it now. Thanks everyone.
