Posted June 29, 201213 yr I ordered two FT1 4ohm tweeters and two PWX-8in mids 4ohm.Well the 8's that came are 8ohm.....Should I try and make this work or just send back for the 4 ohms?The amp is a Alpine PDX 4.150 and does rated at 4 or 2 ohms.

Little enough that you would probably never notice...Okay so I always knew it wouldn't make a big difference, I didn't realize just how insignificant it would be. Thanks for posting!

July 2, 201213 yr Author Or to say that differently the 4ohm option is stupidHmmm, I never knew. I did know my previous components were 4ohm and I also believe my coaxials are too. I figured I was ordering right. Thanks for the tip
