Mini 1 speaker question!

Hi guys and gals
I'm new here so please be gentle......
I need to replace the door speakers on my 51 plate mini one. I was looking at INFINITY KAPPA 62.7i s but now I'm confused about the 2ohm issue.... can I run these with the stock wave radio? Thanks for your help!

The 2 ohms is good for the HK option but for all the non-HK options best to stick to
4 ohms. If the amp in the headunit is designed to work with 4 ohms it can be damaged
by a 2 ohm load. I am assuming you have an OEM headunit?

Some people are like a Slinky ........ not really good for anything, but you still can't help
but smile when you shove them down the stairs

What steve says is true if you play it at high volumes an aweful lot. If you play it at normal levels and only turn it up once in a while the new .7 series Infinities are awesome.

I run 693.7i in the rear on my 06 with stock CD Boost.
