ohms?

The subs I have are 4 ohms...I heard you should match your amps ohms up, but if I get an amp that is 2 ohms will that be bad? Thanks. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

if you have two 4 ohm subs... you can wire them in parallel to the amp which would create a 2 ohm load. the amp will be able to push the 4 ohm load (if stereo) but at lesser watts. just make sure you look at the amps specs before you buy. look for a mono amp which is stable for a 2 ohm load or a multiple channel amp which is bridgable to 2 ohms.
