Using google's search on polk's site I came up with the following. There is probably more discussions. These links probably offer a good place to start.

Higher sensitivity and also most high quality drivers are 4ohms."He who fights with monsters should look to it that he himself does not become a monster. And when you gaze long into an abyss the abyss also gazes into you." Friedrich Nietzsche

Agreed....the OP should look at the LSI line as the corvette of Polk's line up. You can get a 4 cyl. engine in a chevy, but not a corvette, nor would you want to.HT SYSTEM-

Of course when you modify something it can beat something at a higher price point.At the track I've seen some 4 cyl. engines put a beating on the corvettes.:D
To stay on topic, there are 6 and 8ohm tweeters that are on par with the Vifa ring radiator, but most are a little to a lot more expensive."He who fights with monsters should look to it that he himself does not become a monster.
