wiring a speaker to each channel will give u 4 3ohm loads and since most amps are stable atleast to 2ohms, you should be fine, the amp will produce about half way in between the power of 2 and 4 ohms

Ok cool...so should i just get both sets of components at the same time then?

doesn't matter, if you just get 1 set first then you will only be using 2 channels of the amp (same ohm loads) and if you get 2 sets then you will be using all four channels

as long as your amp is 2 ohm stable (most are nowadays) you will be fine and i cant say, i've never heard them
