Hi ppl..I have just bought myself a Pioneer HU (deh-P8mp) which puts out 27w x 4 rms.  Now I'm looking at some infinity kappa's to replace my factory speakers.  Only problem is the kappa's are 2 ohm, and I'm wondering if by using these I would risk damaging my HU.  Any thoughts or suggestions?

No you wouldnt be able to use those with the head unit unless you planned to run a pair per output, and then they would really be starving for power.
