[QUOTE="TJ Cornish, post: 96666, member: 162"] Re: Bridging XTi 2 series amp at 2 ohm? [SIZE=2]3 8Ω speakers in parallel make 2.67Ω: 1/(1/8+1/8+1/8)=2.66667. Very few amps can be bridged safely into less than 4Ω. You're better off running 2 on one side of the amp and 1 off the other side - otherwise you're going to be fighting the amp going into self-protect mode and shutting down all the time.
