My floor standing speakers are 4ohm, however my amp in a High Current amp which can handle/obsorbe the impedance changes of the speaker.
Im talking about bridging the car amp ill be using to power the 15"s.

However the component system im using also runs fine at 4ohms. Its at 4 ohms now and will run full blast without the protection kicking on. Its rated for 6 ohms minium.

Here are pics of the current layout:

The component system:




The speakers (currently on one channel wired in series-parallel with one tweeter and one mid-range and one subwoofer):









Sorry for the crappy pics, i no longer have an actual camera that was takin with my video cameras camera.
