You do realize speakers in series tend to create a peaking impedance?
Depending on the amp's drive capability and application, it might be a
bad load for the amp, and sound not so good.


You DO realize that two identical speakers in series create
an impedance that is simply twice that of a single one AT EVERY
FREQUENCY, and does NOT create ANY more "peaking
impedance" than would be expected by simply doubling
the impedance at any arbitrary frequency.


Nope, doesn't work like that. But I'll have to browse a bit up on
speaker theory to offer the correct explanation. Will do..


Yes, it does work like that. And yes, you SHOULD browse
a bit more on speaker theory, because it is quite well
supported by noth theory AND actual measurement.

While you're at it, try browsing:
