Default Ohms and amp question?

I have 2 4" Eclipse 4-ohm speakers and a set of Image Dynamics 6.5" Chameleon Components 2-Ohm. I also have a JL 300.4 Amp. Here are the sepcs for the amp are 75wx4 @ 1.5-4ohms. Does that mean I can run both sets of speakers with this amp even though they run at different ohms. Or would they both have to be the same to use the same amp. Thanks hopefully I can so I can put then in my truck tomorrow.

JL AUDIO is the only amplifiers that put out the same power from 1.5 -4 ohms. So yes you can run both sets of speakers and they will have the same power 75watts per channel.

the 2 ohm speakers are going to get slightly more wattage (~50%? i believe) than the 4 ohms.

Thats great hopefully I will have time today to start the install. I dont have to do anything specials when I wire up the 2 ohm speakers so they run at 2 ohms correct. Again thanks for the help.
