(New) I have 4 pioneer speakers that i want to hook to a 2 channel amp. How do i get a 4 ohm load from my amp? whats the best way to hook this up without hurting the speaker or causing the amp to overheat?

That amp is stable at 150 WRMS into 2 ohms stereo, so you can connect two of your Pioneers in parallel to each channel. Put both "right" speakers onto one channel and both "left" onto the other.
