Re: 4 speakers with 2 channel amp

It is if wire them in parallel and your amp supports 2 Ohm operation on the two channels. I know mine is, so it would be possible to do that on mine. What amp do you have? Wiring them in series might work too, but your output would suffer.

it is a boss audio amp. Chaos 250 series.
200w X 2 at 2 ohms
75W X 2 at 4 ohms
400W X 1 Bridged

Well, there ya go. As long as the speakers are 4 ohm, which 95% of them are, hook them up in parallel (all the positives connected together, and all the negatives connected together) and you'll have a 100 watt load on each speaker.
