Can't find my spec sheet but I do believe it is a normal 8 ohm speaker. Works just at well as the big boys I had on the wall with the added benefit that the Queen is now much happier with less hanging on the four corners of the room!

Using two 16 ohm would be the same as using four 8 ohm. You would be getting about 30 watts of power to the speakers. That is not much!

Sure. It's in the provided specs. My main speakers are nominal 8 ohm, but dip down to 4. No problem. I've a friend with 4 ohm speakers and we tried the wadia on those, and no problems there either.

They have an eight ohm impedance. The Polk website has a very complete list of the specs.

You might want to try Infinity Reference speakers...good quality and they are 2 ohm speakers.

Yes these are 2 ohm . They require a good break in before you dump the power to them but overall. You will be happy with these speakers.

Should be 8 ohms...not going to see lower then that unless you get the really high end audio stuff. Typically...even still 8 ohms is about the standard.

Thanks H. Choi. I notice from the manual that it says use 8 - 16 ohms below the speaker terminals, but one doesn't have to believe everything they tell you. :-)

yes, just make sure they are 8 Ohm... Wattage is really the top end of how much power they can handle, the ohms is the impedance (think like resistance) if the impedance is too low, it is like shorting out an amplifier. Almost all speakers made today are 8 ohm. and 100 W of audio is way more power than is comfortable to listen to in any home setting.

J. Michael Pisias Jr., Good evening. I just pulled up your question and I am willing to guessthat this amplifier is capable of driving 2, 4, 8, 12 ohm speakers as directed by the purchaser.The reason for my positive response, and I am driving Bose 301's and rebuilt Infinity 3000's, isthat any speaker set up is not a mix and match situation. Go with the speakers you have installedbut do not cross/mismatch the ohms; a quick check of each speaker will save you trouble down theroad. I believe that I am running, 12 total, 8 ohm speakers which I play at volume 50-60. My Jazzsounds terrific! J. Michael Pisias Jr., Good evening.

Yes they are rated at 8 Ohms, Continuous Power is 250 Peak is 1000 Watts. It is a 2 way PA speaker. I have a pair of them and they work very well I use a Peavey 2000 power amp with a Behringer graphic EQ, I also Have A LOT of other Concert equipment But I do use these for the Top of the stack and they do real good for Clean and clear vocals . I do not put a lot of lows through them But I have tried them on smaller concerts and ran bass and guitars through them and they did Ok

Yes the MB42X are 4-8ohm speakers but most 8 ohm receivers can power a pair of these so you're fine

Yes, 90 watts into 8 ohm; see their website: http://www.parasound.com/ParasoundZ/zampv3.php

I no longer have this unit. I believe so at 4 ohms but I suggest you refer to Audio Source Tech Support: 1.877.715.5439 or locally 503.914.4688

you would put the speaker in series to drop it down to 2 ohms if you parallel it it will come out to 8 ohms check with ohm meter if you don't believe

Great question. I have a set of small Bose bookshelf speakers that are 4 ohm. I just hooked them up a couple of days ago and they worked fine. I started with the power control turned all the way down on the Micro amp so as not to blow them and turned it up until I got the sound I wanted.

The pair i purchased last year from parts express were listed as 8 ohms, but measured 4 ohms.
