Default Biketronics Hertz speakers true impedance

A few months back I installed the Biketronics Hertz speakers and I am now looking for an amp. After reading several reviews it seems that the RF PBX300 amp was providing the most bang for the bucks. However, the issue was that my speakers were rated by Biketronics at 3 ohms whereas the amp is rated at 4 ohms.

Therefore, I contacted Biketronics and asked them if I could use a 4 ohm amp with their 6.5" Hertz speakers. Following is their response:

"Hi Joe,

Yes, they test between 3.2 and 3.6 ohms so they are close enough to work. The mfg calls them a 4 ohm speaker.

Bill

So for anyone of you with the same issue we now have a resolution. I guess it is time to order my RF amp.

That's good to know... I have been looking for this answer for awhile. I have been running a set of Biketronics Hertz 6.5 3 ohm speakers with no problems. Just wondering how the amp will hold up with the summer heat.

Well according to Biketronics it should be fine. Let's hope so.
