Are the speakers 4, 6 or 8 ohm?

The five passive modular speakers are 8 ohm. I don't know what the sub-woofer is, but since its an active sub-woofer (has it's own built in amplifier) I don't think it will matter.

you can use 8 ohm speakers,however if you use main and remote speakers they must both be 8 ohms or higher. if u use 2 sets of 8 ohm speakers the amplifier sees it as 4 ohms {speakers are in paralel} anything under 4 ohms will shut the amp down. even playing amp loud it may go in to shutdown when it sees 4 ohms.

Speaker needs same ratings or it might damage unit or speaker . 4 ohm 8 ohm or 16 ohm and wattage ratings need to be within ratings for both , polarity also should be checked

They are 4 ohm speakers. They need some power to drive them. They can be ran without an amp if the head unit has enough power. I would say a min of 30 watts per side but they will sound the best with 75 to 200 watts.

Amp will drive 4 ohm speaker at 300 watts. Will drive 8 ohm speaker at 150 watts.

These speakers are 4ohm rated. You will need an amp that can handle 4ohm speakers. I use a AudioSource Amp 100 Amplifier. It goes for about $120

These run at 4 Ohms. If you're looking for something with a little more wattage, try the GMI 9030 Audio Stereo Speakers, these carry 4 - 8 Ohms with 300 watts for the pair and the price is just slightly more. Reason I say this is the Pyle's were good, but my son cranked the receiver on them and blew the speakers about a week ago so I fot the GMI's to replace them and I'm happier with the GMI's than I was with the PYle's.

They connect on the back of the speaker. The speakers are 8 ohms each together they are 4ohms (parallel)

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

from my understanding your speakers ohms should not be lower than your receiver/amp. This will have your receiver working overtime to power those speakers which may casue overheating. For a 8 ohm receiver the lowest I would go would be 6 ohms; I think 4 ohms is pushing it.

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

it's a 4ohm speaker! not 6.. And you Question makes not since to the line of questioning...

These are listed as 6 ohm. That's a compromise between 4 and 8 ohms. These should be OK with either 4 or 8 as long as you aren't pumping maximum power thru them. Keep it under 100 watts and you probably won't notice any difference.

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.

75 watts rms. These are 2 ohm speakers. They sounded rather tinny at first, quite dissapointing. After a few months they mellowed out, and sound great.

I have no idea, but I just read the manual and it states 125@ 8ohms, and 200 @4 ohms.

Correct, the 75W output rating applies to 4 ohm speakers. At 8 ohms it's less. Manufacturer's data provided in a tnt-audio web review indicated 50W for each of two speakers at 8 ohms:Power Rating STEREO: 50wpc @ 8ohms, 75wpc @ 4ohms, 0.01% THD, full bandwidth MONO: 150watts @ 8ohms
