[QUOTE="akheathen, post: 7464568, member: 629234"] something is not right....... you should be reading 8ohms, by your description (2+2+2+2=8) also, it should be just fine series-paralleled to 2ohms. check the battery in the meter, and re-test the speakers. also helps to check the ohms of a known good speaker, like a house speaker... individual coils would be best at this point. it is also possible that you are simply clipping it hard, and the protection mode, is just doing it's job and protecting from burning stuff up. btw- amps are ac, lol....just saying [/QUOTE]
