Please can someone answer this?

Correct


Still correct

Right...it's still a 4ohm final load. But each channel on the amp will carry ("see") half of that load....so each channel would "see" a 2ohm load. Did ya ever notice it was kinda odd how the 4ohm mono rating was the sum of the power output per channel at 2ohm?? Think there is a reason for that?? Yes, there is a reason for that.....and it's because each channel essentially has a 2ohm load on it.

Thank you Squeak. I'm still trying to see where I said the amp determines the impedance.

well the amp is a POS sony so it says it is stable at 4 ohm bridged but it doesnt seem to be.

i had two 8 ohms subs wired in parralel to a final 4 ohm load. but the amp still overheated so i am just gonna throw it out...... Thanks guys for clearing that up!!!

even with the gain all the way down. and no bass boost. i just got a kenwood 300RMS X 1 @ 4ohms so that will take its place.
