Quick Amp6-Basic Question

revans · 2nd August 2008, 03:05 AM

Ok I'm not sure if this is in the right amplfier section but anyway ...

On their website 41hz say that the Amp6-Basic outputs:

"2x25W RMS maximum, into 4 ohms at 10% THD+N. Up to about 2X15W, the THD+N is below 0.1%."

So from that I gathered it's a 4 ohm amp (genius). But ... does that mean 4 ohms per channel? Or 4 ohms overall so 2 ohms per channel?

Sorry if I've got my thinking all wrong or if this is a stupid question but something I read elsewhere confused me. Thanks.

That would be 4 ohms each speaker. A 2 ohm speaker might be a problem for this little amp.

Thanks Bearman, I don't plan on using any 2 ohm speakers so that should be fine.
