Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

Ohms question

I'm presently running a pair of AR3's and 3a's through my McIntosh MC2300 amp on it's 2 ohm taps. Knowing that the speakers can and do dip below 4 ohms to 3, or even 2 ohms each depending on the situation, was wondering if experimenting with the 1 ohm, or even .5 ohm taps that the amp offers would be encouraged. Have never run speakers that low before, and while I don't think there is any danger to the amp or speakers, thought I'd ask before doing. Thanks.
