x2, yeah, what he said. :ditto

Why not just wire them togher for a 4 ohm load and bridge the amp?

^ Ditto... a resistor used in that fashion is just asking for a world or problems.

Can the impedence of a loudspeaker be increased by adding some resistors to the terminals? I have some 2ohm units that keep tripping the protection circuits. Thank you
