In reference to the following... I have seen very few, if any amps that
are stable at a .5 ohm impedance rating. Most companies brag if
their amps are 2 ohm stable, wiring speakers in parallel makes the
amp run hotter cuz it loweres the impedance load making the amp
work way harder. You'll get more power yes, but is the amp gonna
be stable? Most quality amps have thermal overload protection
that will not allow the amp to blow when the load gets to big for the amp.
I would be cautious about wiring 4-4ohm speakers in parallel..
Good luck alan
