Should I use 2 or 4 drivers?

   Building bluetooth boombox using nobsound class d amp powered by suaoki jump battery rated 1800 mah. Could build with 2 x 6ohm 4" wharfedale drivers or 4 x 2.5 ohm 4" bose drivers wired in 5 ohm pairs. I dont have the knowledge to know which option would maximise battery life for relative spl or listening volume.

Any ideas you lot?

Grateful for any power source or amp advice also..

	Depends on the sensitivity of the drivers but in most cases four drivers will give more output than two if fed with the same input power.
