4 ohm components wired to 2 ohm load - passive crossover safe?


Recommended Posts

Hi , 

 

I have searched far and wide for this but I am running my 4 ohm components wired to 2 ohm load on a 2 channel amp. I have coaxials in the rear running on 2 ohm load (4 ohm speakers). I am getting extremely bright tweeters on my components. Is this because I am running 2 ohm load through my crossover which was probably designed for a 4 ohm load? I am going to try running my on sepparate channels and scrap the rea coax - but I was curious to ask first. 

 

JBL GT7-6c

some SPL 2 channel amp which is ancient

rears are KFC 6965s kenwood

deck is a pioneer 1300NEX 

 

Id appreciate clarification on this one as I cannot find any info anywhere on this type of setup on google

How do you have 4 ohm speakers running in a 2 ohm load?
