I assume the amp can be bridged to mono, but what impedance can it drive? 4 Ohm or 2 Ohm?

I assume all of the speakers are 4 Ohm, is this correct?

Four speakers at 4 Ohm each can be wired to a 4 Ohm mono load. With a pair of 15"'s, wiring them in parallel would give you a 2 Ohm load.

One drawback to the 15"'s is that you will need reasonably good and loud midbass since they should be crossed over lower than the 12"'s would need to be.
