Can this amp run safely into 4 Ohm speaker ? Is that 50 watt per/channel into 4 Ohms or 8 Ohms ???

it sounds great with these http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/PUSA/Home/Speakers/Home+Theater+Speakers/SP-BS22-LR

Dear customer, you're right and I am sorry that I mixed up the model in my last answer. And here's the correct answer: Yes, it's 50w/channel, and totally safe to use with no matter 4ohm or 8ohm speakers.

It really doesn't matter whether they are 4ohm or 8ohm... most amps can handle a 4ohm load without any trouble. Having said that these are 8ohm speakers.

Most current amplifiers can handle 6 ohm speakers without problem (though power output will go up, so pay attention to that). It's 4 ohm speakers where you'll start having serious problems - you'll need an amp that explicitly states it supports high current output. Check your amp's user guide - it should have what impedance is supported.

No sorry I cannot answer that question, I will tell you that you will not be disappointed with there performance, I drive 2 of them with the pyle hybrid 3000 watt amp, which actually put out about 500 watts at 4 ohms, and the sound great, actually the amp fall short of being able to deliver what they can handle

Joseph, The wattage per channel is 90 watts per channel @ 8 ohms. I have very efficient speakers (Klipsch Forte) @ 96db. The AS-700 is a very good Amp.

It goes up to 2 ohms, so 3 8 ohms speakers per channel but stay within the ohm wattage per 8, 4, & 2 ohm load.

50 x 4 on the 4 channel at 4 ohms. i just got this amp for my door speakers and it pushes them although it does get a little toasty after a long trip especially since i live in texas haha but it puts in work! I wouldnt use it for subs though.

The XPA-5 amplifier is 200 watts per channel into 8 ohms and 300 watts per channel into 4 ohms. If a speaker with lower impedance is used there will be more power output due to the lower resistance placed on the output. We appreciate your consideration!

With that speaker the amp has to be stable at 1 ohm I ended up changing the sub to the 4 ohm one because of the dual voice coil it has actual 2 ohm. The amp I bought was only stable at 2. Just depends on what you like truly.

Yes, this amp would rate at 10watts per channel into a 8ohm load, but power would be a little lower with the load of 4ohm.

Yes this amp will do 4 ohms per channel. Now as far as power, don't listen to these people who are just guessing. 1) someone said it is impossible to get a total of 8k watts max from this amp because of the 120 volts. well they don't understand how power is made. 2) the amp is rated 225 rms at 8 ohms and 315 rms at 4ohms. 3) I don't know why they and others advertise max watts when in reality you never see the max ratings except on high end audio.

The specs for this amp indicate 40 watts of power for each channel....so I believe it would be within your speakers' parameter.

You should be fine, but just to be on the safe side, look on the back of the amplifier or in the owner's manual to see if there is a specific warning not to drive speakers with less that an 8-ohm load. Since it's a good-quality amp, there shouldn't be a warning of that sort. As a further check, see if the manual quotes a power rating into 4 or 6 ohms. It probably will (and it will be a higher number), which means your unit has the reserve current to safely drive a lower impedance speaker. Hope this works out because -- having lived with these speakers for more than a year -- I continue to be impressed by their clarity and the width of the sonic field they are able to project.

This amp is not putting out 2100 watts to your speakers. Your speakers are probably 8 ohms. If they are 8 ohms they are getting 230 watts to each channel. 1050 Watts x 2 Power Amplifier 230 + 230 Watts @ 8 Ohms - 460 + 460 Watts @ 4 Ohms - 920 + 920 Watts @ 2 OhmsYou will need a much more powerful amp. Good luck!

It usually means 8 ohms is the recommended speaker impedance. Using lower impedance speakers like 4 ohm draws more power from the amp and can cause the amp to overheat. But generally in quality amps this will only be a real concern if u constantly blast music close to maximum levels. Some higher end brands will say they are 8 ohm but 4 ohm stable meaning they can handle the lower impedance

Yes, you can, but even though this amp is most efficient at a 2 ohm load, most factory speakers are only 4 ohm.even at 4 ohms it may have too much power for the speakers, you need to keep the gain below half way!I hope this was helpful!

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.
