Can this be done? a 2 channel amp......running front and back speakers ?

You can, but it may not be optimal.

If your amp supports a 2ohm load, you can wire two 4ohm speakers together (in parallel) and result in 2ohm load.

 

post up the amp and speaker models and we will tell you how to do it

 

What haze said, but you have no ability to fade front to rear

 

Thanks.... I just have a hogtunes 140 watt 2 channel amp and hogtune speakers

 

i did a little searching as i am not that familiar with the hogtunes lineup but what i found says their speakers are 2ohm and the amp does 70x2@2ohm, so currently each speaker is getting the full power the amp can produce. you could add another set of 2ohm speakers but you would have to run them in series. in that scenario the amp would see a 4ohm load and it's power would be reduced to around 40 watts per channel, so 20watts per speaker (these are approximations, but in the end it would most likely not be as loud as your current setup).

based on that info it would not be worth it. you would need a bigger (more power) amp to upgrade your system.

 

+1 with Nineball.

 

 

I had a Hogtunes Setup. was not very happy with the freeway speed sound levels.
But I Started listening to the boys here in the Audio forum. So my 2nd time around I saved money and Just did a Complete BT system I only have one choice Left, What to do with the Stock Head unit.

 

All..... Thanks for the help. Nineball I appreciate the research and the info, will hook amp to front speakers and later get a more powerful amp. I picked this amp for $55.00, so couldn't pass it up.
