4 Ohms

It all reminds me of something that Molière once said to Guy de Maupassant at a café in Vienna: "That's nice. You should write it down."

Are you serious? If you are serious, I apologize in advance for the next answer, but the answer is 2 ohms or 8 ohms, depending on whether you wire them in parallel or series.

If you are not serious, please stop wasting time and space by asking lame-o questions that you already know the answer to...
