are these speakers 4 ohm?

Check the Polk Audio website for the specs http://www.polkaudio.com/mm651/d/1151 . According the their specs - Electrical - Nominal Impedance 2.7 ohms

Yes, you should be able to power your 8 ohms speakers. Just don't daisy-chain another set of speakers.

Not without running them parallel with another 4 ohms speaker or wiring them to them self in parallel. Individually these r 2 4 ohms speakers

These speakers are 4ohm rated. You will need an amp that can handle 4ohm speakers. I use a AudioSource Amp 100 Amplifier. It goes for about $120

Four speakers (2 pair) at once yes. Four pairs no. Total resistance should not drop below 4 ohms with most amplifiers.

no but i rewired them for a 4 ohm pa and added 2 portholes sold from parts express for a few dollers. hollywoodphil sound and lite tech for the metal band black fate

You might want to try Infinity Reference speakers...good quality and they are 2 ohm speakers.

4 ohms is the modern standard, and these speakers match that standard. Antique car radios (tube electronics, made before c.1965) may require 3.2 ohms. 2 ohms is for specialty applications (e.g., Bose and some "enclosure-less" subs).

Yes these are 4 ohms but work like 2 ohms but you just have to be careful and make sure your radio inst over heating or amp.

They have an eight ohm impedance. The Polk website has a very complete list of the specs.

Yes, but the speakers must be 8 ohm speakers. You can not use 4 ohm speakers. If you are only using 1 pair of speakers, then you can use 4 ohm speakers. Most speakers are 8 ohms, but check to be sure.

Speakers, unless they are powered speakers, are rating by Wattage and Ohms. These are 65W at 8ohm and do not need any external power.

True Four Ohm Impedance technology: speaker's 3-ohm impedance combines with speaker wire impedance for a 4-ohm load. It will be very hard to find a 2-ohm system. Almost all 4" are 4-ohm.

Yes they can be used with a 4 ohm amp, but the volume will be less than normal. You will need to crank them up to get a normal volume. Shouldn't be a problem unless you want to listen a very loud levels.

Thanks H. Choi. I notice from the manual that it says use 8 - 16 ohms below the speaker terminals, but one doesn't have to believe everything they tell you. :-)

I would expect that if your speakers are more than 4 ohms when connected you'll be fine. It really doesn't matter what your speakers are rated only their impedance usually 4 to 8 ohms.

4 ohm according to Pioneer's site: http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/PUSA/Car/Speakers/G-Series/TS-G1644R
