Amp suicide or doable?

Each HD15 is 8 ohms, but would the horn loading raise the impedance enough to make this a safe option? It may not be a sensible one, but I want to push these amps properly.

Answers as quick as you can please, it's going on tomorrow and I need to know if we have to rejig our racks

3 0 ohm is 2.66, 4 is 2.

Parallel resistance:

1/Rtot = 1/R1 +1/R2 + ... 1/Rn

Nice one, going to be nice and filthy. Shame the Punishers aren't ready to play though.

Anyone in Manc who fancies Bizzy B and Remarc junglist mayhem on a stack of 6 Looneys and a stack of 8 HDs should come down for a bit of a terrorising!
