4 speakers on 2-channel amp

[Shanerator]

Hello, I have 2 Crunch 2-channel 500w amplifiers..

Specs are: 4 ohm stereo 2x 70w, bridged mono 250w rms, 2 ohm stereo 2x 125w rms.

I am using one for powering 220w rms sub and one for front speakers... They are 50w rms, 350w peak blaupunkt pair..

So the point of my topic: If i buy another set of these speakers and put them in parallel with the fronts. Please confirm my questions or deny them:

1.) Because all speakers in that way are the same (all have 4 ohms) i can run them 2 on each channel and in that way make 2 ohm load, which is ok, because my amp is 2 ohm stable.

2.) i will then have 62,5 watts per speaker? (2 on each 125w channel), which is also ok, because its slighty more that speakers rms (50).

3. its worth it, because its like a free power for a new pair of speakers.

Tnx..

1. Yes

2. Yes you should be fine with gains properly set assuming the amp puts out its rated.

3. Are these going in a front stage or rear fill?

thanks for the reply and a link.. I will use them for a rear fill.. so.. the same gain, filter, etc.. for all 4 of them (obviously)...

The only downside is that you won't be able to fade front to rear. This will make the rear too loud and will tend to drag the sound stage image behind you. It will be louder if that's all you are looking for.
