Rhonx2 is an unknown quantity at this point
Exclamation Would These speakers work with this amp?

I was wondering if these speakers the Infinity Kappa 62.9i "specs" and the Alpine SPS-600C "specs" would work on this amp Jensen Power 760 "specs". Asking because it says the infinity are 2ohms and the alpines are 4 ohms. Also which of the two speakers are better in front? rear? thanks alot.

Yes, they would work, however, I would get same speakers front and rear to be safe

Re: Would These speakers work with this amp?

Having the same type of speakers in the front and back is definitely a good idea, unless you are planning to run a set of components. I have Boston Acoustic SR60's in the front and Clarion components in the back. That amp will work, but even at 2 ohms your speakers are barely getting their RMS wattage. Either set of speakers are great. I never had any infinity products but I've heard good reviews on the Kappas. (I'd do a little more research)... However, Alpine is always a sure bet, their stuff is amazing. Personally I would ditch the amp. Even at 2 ohms it only gives about 40 more watts then what most head units would give. My suggestion would be to get at least a 1K watt amp. The Kappas peak at 450 and the Alpines peak at 250. You can safely exceed the RMS (by up to 60%) without blowing them.
