2 - 16 ohms Bookshelf speakers?


Hi everyone,

I am looking to buy a pair of bookshelf speakers that will be able to be driven in 2 ohms and up to 16 ohms.

Any sugestions?

As always, your opinions HIGHLY APPRECIATED!!!

Thank you

I'm afraid I don't understand your question.

If you were asking for an amplifier that's able to drive speakers rated at 2 ohms and/or 16 ohms impedance, I'd understand.

Or if you were asking for bookshelf speakers that had an impedance of 2 ohms, or of 16 ohms, I'd understand (though I wouldn't have an answer for you).

Of if you were asking for a bookshelf speaker that could be driven by 2 watts and up to 16 watts, I'd understand.

But "ohms" is a unit of resistance or impedance; you cannot "drive" anything with 2 ohms, nor with 16 ohms. You can "drive" speakers with watts, or with volts (customarily, we use "watts" when we speak of driving loudspeakers).

Maybe I'm not understanding your question. Could you phrase it another way, and I'll try again?

Thanks!
