 (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?

What make and model are your speakers and amp?

the 4 speakers are 4ohm Pioneer three ways and the amp is an autotek 2150 (2 channel 200 watt amp)

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.
