Does anyone know of a 2ohm SQ 6.5 comp set. SQ being the key.

Most component set out in the market are design to run at 4 ohm. The only component set that comes to my mind that runs lower than 4 ohm is Boston. They have a 3 ohm impedance. If you are looking to get a 2 ohm SQ component set. Why not wire up two set of 4 ohm component set to serve that purpose.

Keep in mind that the impendence of a component set doesn’t determined the sound quality of the speaker, but rather the design, the material being used and the engineering behind the speaker does.

Be careful whose advice you buy, but be patient with those who supply it. 2ohm 6.5 comp set -- posted image.

Is your goal just to get more power out of your amplifier?

2 ohms is really the best impedance for components anyways, because the damping factor on the amp goes down which = the amp dosn't have as much control of the drivers movement (saying it in a very loose statement).

Yes I am looking for more power but sound quality also.

Go with CDT, MB Quart, Focal, diamond audio..adire audio Koda to name a few. Each have there own sound. I suggest listening to them before you buy.

I need quality equipment, feel free to donate.

If you want SQ don't shoot for low ohms. Why do you want 2-ohms?

ID makes a 2 ohm set, but as stated before this screws with the damping factor of the amp. Ideally an 8 ohm set on a 2 ohm amp would be great, but 4 ohm is most common and acceptable.

The best way to do this is to choose a good quality set of components (such as those already suggested or any others) and purchase an amp to match their RMS power handling capability. NEVER try to run components in parallel just to achieve a 2-ohm load if you care about how it sounds. This is foolish. Get the proper amp.

DYohn,

"NEVER try to run components in parallel just to achieve a 2-ohm load if you care about how it sounds."

I have never experiment with kind of set up before. I always thought if you have good equipment the deterioration of the sound quality from 4 ohm to 2 ohm cannot be that drastic. Can it? After all, with good component set also cames along with good engineer build amplifier. Your technical input on this is much appreciated.
