Would depend on the amplifier because not all are designed to run low impendances.

run it at 2ohm, less resistance = more power.

ask on www.talkaudio.co.uk if you need to know more technical things as they are great on there

I would run that set up at 2 ohms as well, your making better use of the amps power.
