WILL THIS HEAD RUN 2 SETS OF 4ohm SPEAKERS ?

I wouldn't suggest it. There is just not enough power output here to run 2 - 4 ohm cabs. You need a bigger amp that can run bridge mono at 2 ohms if daisy chained or has separate outs for each cab with a higher wattage output. Of course this also depends on what the power handling and needs of each cab is. If its a bass cab then I'm betting its power needs are much higher than this amp can deliver. Call us we can help.

Ohm depends on your speakers. 2 (4ohm speakers) wired in parallel drop your ohm load to 2 ohms or 1 duel voice coil subwoofer with 4 ohm coils wired in parallel.

This is just an educated guess, but as long as those speakers are 8 ohm, it would drive them. I believe with room to spare!

Yes I have 2 othem pushing 2 12" Rockford's P3 @ 2ohmI have on idea why everyone wouldn't do this. My entire system is 2ohm.Hope this helps.

NO. Specs say: 4 ohms: 1500 watts x 1, 2 ohms: 2000 watts x 1, 1 ohms: 2800 watts x 1. So the most you could ever get is CLAIMED 2800 watts if your speakers are wired to 1 ohm (you would need two 4ohm DVC speakers, or one 2ohm DVC speaker)

you would have a problem running 2 parallel 4 ohm speakers that would make the load 2 ohms. most amps would cut out and go into protection mode. some amps are rated at 2 ohms. you can take 2 4 ohm cabs if there run in series and the ohms double. so if you daisy chain speakers it will cut the load in 1/2 unless you rewire your cabs in series

My 2c here. I wouldn't run 2 sets of speakers off this amp. Even though it is rated at 8/4 ohms, I would just get a speaker selector. This is essentially a $150 amp. I wouldn't mess with it being that it is expensive. And overpriced imo.

Yes, you can hook two subs up to this amp by wiring them in series. Check crutchfield for wiring diagrams to get the right ohm/impedence level. *Note-although they're listed as being 1ohm stable, don't run it that way. Keep it at a 2-4ohm level and it last and perform very well. Good luck, and I hope you like it!

the four ohm speaker will work just fine in this application, but it will not be as loud as a two ohm speaker. the ohm in this sense is a unit of resistance, and the higher the number the more resistance you have. that being said, finding a two ohm speaker may be a bit of a chore. good luck!!

You cant wire two four ohm speakers 1 ohm. If you wire them parallel they will be 2ohms. This amp will power them nicely. To accomplish 1 ohm you would need 4, 4ohm speakers. Basic ohms law.

Yes, you will need an amp that can handle 2ohm. Jl Audio sells a 4ohm model or buy two for a 4 ohm wiring in parralel. Woofer is single voice coil.

Absolutely. The specs sheet info is aimed for 8 ohm speakers, therefore it should not have any problem powering 4 ohm speakers. By the way, wiat a power suply rated at 36V the max power rms it can deliver is 80W (40W per channel) if using 8 ohm speakers. If using 4 ohm speakers it should be able to deliver 160 W, but that would probably blow your speakers!

I don't remember if this amp is rated to 2 ohms. If it's not you'll cook it not matter how many fans you put in there. To answer your power questions, 2 ohms puts out about double the power compared to 4 ohms if I'm not mistaking. Also you need to make sure the speaker can run at 2 ohms. In short if your stuff is rated at 2 ohms and the amp can go down that low then you'll be happy. If nothing is rated for 2 ohms you'll be unhappy real fast.

no the rms power from the head unit is enough to power 4 speakers. However you can run an amp on them just make sure your amp doesnt have to high of an rms power output..

It will...however running 4 you might consider the higher power unit. Polk Audio speakers tend to like higher power.

I have 8 ohm B&W; cs1 speakers and use 6ohm without an issue. I'm not sure why they didn't design it for 8ohm

Two 8 ohms speakers in parallel make a 4 ohms load. If you have 4 speakers you'll have to wire 1 set of 2 in series wicch will give you 16 ohms and set 2 in series also. Two 16 ohms wired in parallel will make an 8 ohms load
