[QUOTE="thispain, post: 332894, member: 550426"] An Ohm is a measurment of resistence to current; so the more ohms, then current will be resisted more (note that home speakers typically are 8ohm since there much more current rather than car speakers 12.3vots nom.). So, 2ohms will have less resistence than 4ohms, but there will be like twice as much power (that explains why 2ohms have more wattage); although, due to technicall reasons that I'm not sure how to explain (not a science theriorizer), some amplifiers don't put out their "true" power at less resistance.
