does it make a difference if I use 2 channels of the amp for 2 ohm speakers and the other 2 for 4 ohm speakers if its 2 ohm stable?
same question here where did you got 2ohm speakers. maybe you mean plug 2 speakers in parallel on one side(ex right)
infinity has several, they are the smaller components (tweeters and 3.5"), Never seen 2 ohm speakers , only subs. Not sure if that's correct but that's how crutchfield had them rated
Infinity has them here are the specs on the specific spkrs he is referring to: KAPPA32.7CF Power Handling, RMS: 35 Watts Power Handling, Peak: 105 Watts Sensitivity: 95dB Frequency Response: 85Hz - 25kHz Mounting Depth: 1-9/16" Impedance: 2 Ohms Plus One woofer cones - This patent pending technology deliver a cone with more surface area than competing models of the same size. The result is increased bass output and higher efficiency. Woven glass fiber woofer cone material is extremely stiff, minimizing cone flex which yeilds very low distortion and improved clarity, an Infinity trademark. SLI high-output design. Conventional 4-ohm speakers do not leverage allof the power available from today's car audio amplifiers and high-powered head units. This topology extracts every last watt from the amplifier source, increasing overall system output and efficiency. Computer-optimized voice-matched outboard passive crossovers - Each Kappa multielement and component system features an outboard crossover that has been voice-matched using audiophile grade air core inductors and polypropylene capacitors. The result is flawless performance with incredible detail and accuracy Adjustable tweeter level-Each Kappa multielement features a user adjustable tweeter level control. On the two-way models, simply rotate the tweeter to add or subtract 3dB output. On the three-way models, it is the simple push of a button right on the tweeter faceplate. Here is the manual for the speakers in pdf format. They all seem to be 2 ohm load speakers.
Sorry Dave, but not according to Infinity's website.....you have it backwards...and they offer no 3 ohm speakers, just the normal 4 ohm and the 2 ohm.
No, it shouldn't hurt at all. Just dont mix and match your front and rear channels. Running 2 ohm on the fronts and 4 ohm on the rear is perfectly acceptable. The curcitry for the fronts and rears are completely independent.
