alright so i got a kicker 350.2 amp
its 2 channels(duh lol)
i wanted to know if i could wire two components speakers that are 120 rms to one of the 175 rms channels if i messed with the settings on the amp or is this just not possible

 

bumppppp

 

I'm not clear on what you're trying to do and why.

Are you asking if either of the amp's stereo channels can handle the nominal 2-Ohm load that a pair of parallel wired component sets would present? If so, then yes.

If you're asking whether or not a pair of parallel wired 120w rated components could handle 175w, then it depends on the active hi-pass filter frequency & slope, along with source content and duration. With the settings optimized, no problem.

 

i want to wire 2 componet speakers in parallel to one channel of the amp, will they work right? one pair is 120 watts rms

 

bumpp

 

just wire each speaker to separate channels...just set your gains low and dont crank the hell outa it.

That way you don't have to worry about the ohm load changing if you had 2 speakers on one channel, and you wont be in mono off of one channel. You can use Right and Left..

The rule is its better to have a little head room in an amp then to under power speakers. If you are underpowering speakers you are more likely to clip the amp, which is not good for your electrical system, the amp nor the speakers.

but the way your explaining it im still a bit confused. lol

 

^^ agree w/ him; and its always good to have more power than needed than less because you can always turn down the gain

 

Did you read my initial reply? It contains the answer to that question.

Are you wanting to run 4 sets total, 2 on each channel? Or are you just using a single channel for mono output? This isn't clear, as some presume the latter, based on the replies from others.
