The iDrive unit can handle 2ohms according to BMW. Less than that and the unit will overheat.

This has to be done the right way.
I beg pardon for double reply.

In theory I agree with you but when the tweeter is filtered (series connection) with a capacitor it does not affect the resistance so there should be no problem and no lowering of the load...am I right?
