What's with 4 ohm speakers?


If 4 ohm speakers are harder to drive, why do manufacturers keep coming out with them?

Drew + Duke + Ralph = lots of good info.

The thing with voltage paradigm is, it represents the vast majority of products out there today whereas power is perhaps having a renaissance in high end circles but remains distinctively as more of a niche approach these days, for better or for worse.

You need to be well advised or know what you are doing to get the best results out of either. Lots of ways to hit or miss either way. Excellent results can be achieved either way, as long as all the parts fit together well. Each has its unique ups and downs. Having a choice is a good thing. I hope it stays that way!

I like that and would have to wholeheartedly agree!
