this speakers are advertised as 2ohm and also 4ohm ,, how does that work? which is it

I'm 99% positive these are a 4ohm speaker without pulling them out and looking.

True Four Ohm Impedance technology: speaker's 2-ohm impedance combines with speaker wire impedance for a 4-ohm load.

I do apologize. I was wrong. I jus went and looked at the boxes they came in and they say 2ohms. Sorry for incorrect first answer.

Hello. At 4 ohms that amp provide 525 watts. That is plenty so I would just use both channels of your amp, on for each speaker. You would not want to bridge your amp with these speakers as you would then be providing 1550 watts at 4 ohms and would almost definitely blow the speakers. Also if you bridged your amp you would only have one channel. So either you would need two amps, or you would try to daisy chain these speakers and I don't believe that amp will work at 2 ohms.

I question why someone would write an ad for a speaker, and not state the ohm rating. Seems I run into this type of lackadaisical advertising constantly.

The impedance with the high and low range terminals connected in parallel with supplied connectors (recommended default setting) is 8 ohms. The speakers can be driven with an 8 or 4 ohm amplifier. Most receivers are 8 ohms. I am driving them with an amplifier designed for 8 ohm speakers and they sound great. There should sound just as good connected to a 4 ohm amplifier. Basically the impedance of the speaker should be equal to or greater than the minimum rated impedance of the amplifier.

2 to 4 Check ohms. I haven't had any luck with pyle products. I've lost too set of speakers to this unit.

I have been using these in my home theatre system for about two years and they are 8 ohm. I really like these....they open up after you use them for awhile...awesome speakers for rear surround channels...

depends on how wire up your speakers. you can wire them in series or parallel. depending on the speakers resistance specs you can wire them a multitude of ways, especially if they are dual ohm voice coils. 2 single 4ohm speakers can be wired together as 8 ohm or 2 ohm setup. dual voice coil speakers with extend your options. do a little research on wiring subwoofers in series or paralell. you can definately make it work, but it may not have that punch and volume your looking for.

On a 4 OHM output amp. You use one 4 Ohm speaker or two 8 OHM speakers. Example: One 8 OHM speaker + One 8 OHM speaker = 4 OHMs.

This unit is built for output impedance 4-8 Ohm. By using 2 Ohm speakers you are risking to burn unit amplifier; this is not really high end equipment.This unit has RCA output and option to attach an amplifier; that would be better way to go.

Speakers, unless they are powered speakers, are rating by Wattage and Ohms. These are 65W at 8ohm and do not need any external power.

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!

Well I have it pushing four 6.5 component speakers which is four tweeters and four mid range woofers and two 6x9s and it still seems like it has power to spare. I wired the back two doors with the 6x9s making the ohm rating 2. All of my speakers have 4 ohm ratings. That's the important part. This amp can be wired down to two ohms. Basically if you put two 4 ohm speakers on one channel it becomes 2 ohms. I would say you wont have a problem with this thing. I would say wire the 3.5 and tweeters with your front 2 doors and wire the rear doors with the 6x9s. That is basically my setup minus the 3.5 Well I have it pushing four 6.5 component speakers which is four tweeters and four mid range woofers and two 6x9s and it still seems like it has power to spare.

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.

My Tech checked them, they are 6 ohm, however please understand that this is a complete Bose system, not intended to be used with other systems Amps, so if you were to use these speakers in any way that is not intended by Bose. And the speakers are damaged, I can not have them returned for a refund, I appreciate your interest, but must make this clear, as I said this is a complete Bose system, and not to be connected in any other way, thanks, Jack

The manual specifies 6 ohm or higher. Mine are 8 ohm and work well with this amplifier. I don't know how well 4 ohm speakers would work.

It might not be the speaker it might be the connector or the wire where it plugs in I found that connection to lose connection,if not find an old headphone speaker I think 2 ohms.
