Christian Murace Posted August 28, 2016 Report Share Posted August 28, 2016 If you hook up a 2 ohm sub to a 4 ohm amp, does the amp get damaged or the speaker? please no back stories, suggestions or methods just yes or no and why would be heaps appreciated!

White Lightning Posted August 28, 2016 Report Share Posted August 28, 2016 You will damage an amplifier that's set up for and either 8 or 4 ohm load and you slap on a 2 ohm load and crank it. Most of those old home audio amplifiers do not have protection circuits. Hope this helps.

Jessica Posted August 28, 2016 Report Share Posted August 28, 2016 ask yourself this. your car tires are rated to a certain PSI, is it safe to run them at half or twice that? what will et damaged in each scenario? that is not the best analogy, but it makes you think. and that is a good thing Rest in peace, walled 87 accord build log 03' Corolla build with AA Mayhem inside.
