2-way components - 4 ohms?
I originally bought a set of Panasonic 2-way component speakers for my doors. I managed to crush one of the tweeters in the door during the install
Bought some Pioneers tweeters to replace them instead. The Panasonics came with bass blockers (for the tweeters) instead of a real crossover, which I'm continuing to use.
Here's my question: Are the speakers running at 4 ohms?

It's also not uncommon to find 6 or 8 ohm tweeters in a comp set.
I'm a bit of a newbie so be gentle...
The speaker wire running from the HU is split so that the + goes to the + on the mid and + on the tweeter, and the - goes to the - on the mid and - on the tweeter. I thought I understood this to be a parallel connection which would in effect net a resistance of 2 ohms.
