Default 2? 4? or 8 ohms??

I'm trying to upgrade my front woofers to 6.5" woofers (since the stock ones are blown), but I can't find out if a 98 GS400 with Nakamichi has 2, 4, 8, or what ohm speakers.

Does anyone know? If so please tell me!!

PS: I tried searching but i can't search using the keyword "ohm" since its only three letters

You mean "speakers". Most are 4 ohms. Tweeters are usually 8 ohms. Some subs are also 4 ohms, usually ported box subs. Sealed box subs are 2 ohms. Learn about ohms (impedance) here... http://www.ndt-ed.org/EducationResou.../impedance.htm

I forgot to say... 2 ohms are for the BIG sealed/bandpass boxes.

You are oversimplifying the question. I wouldnt pay any attention to this post.

If you cant find it just pop a speaker out and hook up a multimeter to it, problem solved.
