[QUOTE="akheathen, post: 7294987, member: 629234"] lol, put your meter on 200v, and put that ac/dc button on ac. do it first with the speakers off. then do it with the speakers on and see how high the voltage goes before it shuts off. you have 2 2ohm loads on it, so you can series those to 4ohms, instead of running them parallel. however, looking at your readings, you may have cooked wires...they look kind of pansy. so, while you have the wires disconnected, ohm each on out. that reading that you took that shows 1.9, is .4 higher, and that's all in the speaker wires. basically, paralleling the 2 wires you didn't have the meter on, so it should read like .8......... sounds like you are getting extreme resistance in the little wires, reading over 1ohm each without load, blah, blah, blah.... basically, i believe they are cooooooookeed..... start with those, then see if it still does it [/QUOTE]
