[QUOTE="Prowler573, post: 3158669, member: 561023"] When talking about the drivers that comprise your substage there's really much (if any) noticeable difference in sound from one resistance to another. Comparitively few amps are even stable when shown a 1/2 Ohm load whereas pretty much every amp in existence is stable at 4 Ohms. The variance in resistance will dictate how much output a given amp will produce - assuming that the amp in question will offer stable operation at the resistance load you plan to present it. Ergo - if you will refer to the equipment listed in my signature, the monoblock I use for my Geo gives one output @ 4 Ohms, it increases when shown a 2 Ohm load and then increases again when shown a 1 Ohm load. I wouldn't feel comfortable trying a load under 1 Ohm as it isn't particularly designed for it. The monoblock going in the BudgetMobile gives one output @ 4 Ohms and will increase when shown a 2 Ohm load. That particular amp won't even do a 1 Ohm load much less under that. [/QUOTE]
