[QUOTE="Jojo_Gutts, post: 8713774, member: 680456"] Ok I did a little research. Seems that if I connect my amp in mono it drives 80 Watts per channel (@ 4 ohms). So considering that the minimum recommended rating is 4 ohm - if I connect my speakers in series (7 ohm each channel) would that give me roughly 40 watts per speaker? I have attached the manual for my amp for reference. I also read up on attaching a resistor to bring resistance of the circuit up to desired level. Seems its an established thing called "protection". So I guess there is that but I would rather not spend money on a resistor, than find a spot to install it etc if I can get roughly 40 Watts from my speakers in series. [/QUOTE]
