Hello All,
Newb here trying to understand car audio speak. I am looking to replace the speakers in my 2010 CC XLT. I have decided on what speakers and what sub I am going to get and the SP and AMP that I want but here is my question. I would like to run my sub at 2 ohms and my door sepakers at 4 ohms, if I purchase a 5 channel amp will I be able to wire it so four channels are 4 ohms and the one channel for the amp is at 2 ohms? Or do all channels have to be operating at the same ohm load?

Thank you in advance for any help.

 

Each channel operates separately, so the load on one channel should not impact another.

 

x2. However, I would carefully reconsider using a 5 channel amp only because if you blow your amp, then you blow everything. It's convenient to have just one amp because you wouldn't have to run distributors, extra RCA cables, and a relay for the REM+ on two amps. But in my honest opinion, you would be safer if you just blew the sub amp or full range amp because you wouldn't have to pay as much to replace just one, or if you wanted to upgrade just one, then it will cost less than trying to upgrade from a 5 channel amp.
