Default Quick question

I have a set of 62.9i kappa's in my fairing getting ready to install a ss pn4 1000d. The speakers are rated at 225w peak 75w rms at 2 ohms. I don't want just a right or left channel so wiring in series isn't much of an option. Do I need to replace the kappas?

What does the rest of your system consist of that you feel the need to wire these in series?

Very new at this, my apologies. The amp is a 4 ch rated at 4ohms per channel. So to get those up to 4ohms I would have to wire them in series yes?

No sir. That amp is stable at 2ohms. Wire those speakers to their own channel.
