No it isn't. Most subs are 2 ohms dude, I've always ran my subs at 2, it's either that or add acapacitor and run at 4.

Most quality house speakers are higher than 2. At least when I used to be into that, they were in the 6 and 8 range.

House speakers run 4 or 8 ohms.. It gives better sound quality.. 2 0r 1 ohm or even .5 ohm is mainly for subs..

I don't think I have ever seen a house speaker running 2 ohms, usually 8.

HA HA that's pretty wicked. I'll prolly end up going with a punch, that is wha I used to have and it was great for the price, especially for driving a sub.
