[QUOTE="BryanDP, post: 2972983, member: 1111"] I have opposing views on this: 1) I have always felt "more speakers" is more important than "more power" so I would say go for it if the mono amp can take a 2 ohm load. 2) In my experience, a 2 ohm load is not a great idea with old Peavey equipment. It technically might work, but it might overheat if you work it really hard like playing lots of music through it at high volume. If this is just the occasional voice announcement you would likely be OK. Basically the things to be concerned about are overzealous Peavey specs and speakers that are really more like 6-7 ohms when they say eight. Only going to go two speakers gives you some breathing room in this case. Bryan [/QUOTE]
