Exclamation Can anyone answer this???????

If you have a 4 channel amp stable at 4,2,and 1 ohm in all 4 channels, and you have 4 ohm speakers. obviously you can run 4- 4 ohm speaker at 4 ohms, but can you also run 8 of the 4 ohm speakers in 2 ohm mode, and 16 at 1 ohm??? I'm looking to run 8 speakers out of one amp at 2 ohms by placing 2 speakers on each channel. Will this work safely??

Based on that info it's a safe and correct use of the amp.

Check for footnotes and asterixes in the manual. Some amps have
limitations when using lower impedances.
