I currently have the stock S676 HiFi speaker system from the factory with non DSP amp. It doesn't sound bad but it's 20 years old and I'm curious to hear and feel the difference.

Here comes my question. If I'm correct the S676 HiFi system uses 2ohm woofers, 8ohm mids and tweeters?
I've read that replacing 8ohm with 4 ohm will not cause damage, only extra heat.
I'm not sure if I can replace the 2ohm woofers with 4ohm woofers, will I get volume problems? It's difficult to find suited 2ohm woofers...

I want to keep the stock non dsp amp and I am running an Android headunit.

Can someone confirm that the HiFi system uses different Ohm speakers?
I just found this for you... interesting read.

I trailed off half way when I started writing my reply (been happening a lot lately) and I noticed this link.

Good read

I was going to get into a little bit of that but for what you're wanting to do just plug the speakers in and enjoy.

We all know at some point you'll be getting an aftermarket amp since you're already tinkering...ya know with Xmas being around the corner and all
