1 Powerpod K12 plus & two speakers rated at 8ohm each (300W).
Hi,

I am not certain whether the speakers I have will work with my Powerpod K12 plus.

I have two speakers rated at 8ohm each (300W).

If I run the amp in 8 ohm mode with each speaker connected to a separate channel, is it safe to do this?

The amp has 2 channels - 500w / 4ohm

And I think it is 300w / 8ohm

Hope you can help - I don't want to damage anything!

Thanks,

Jon.

You should be fine to use your speakers. According to the Powerpod K12 Plus manual: "When connecting a single speaker to each channel's output, speakers with an impedance between 4 and 8 ohms should be used" (which will give you a combined impedance of 4ohms). Further, the manual shows two Phonic ES152 speakers connected to the K12 plus, and the ES152, like your speakers, are rated at 8ohms/300W.
