My understanding is it's 2 ohms, I wanted to update mine a few years ago and the stereo store guy said "oh that's two ohms"

Let me know how it works out Devon, please. I still haven't done mine and have always been upset that my '13 sounds way better than my '12, I just never got to it. Both have the HK sound, so I have never been able to figure out why one sounds so much better.
