They don't take impedance (i.e. they don't take 1 ohm, 2 ohm, etc), they are impedance and present that load to the amplifier. That's why wiring them to the amp correctly is so important. Wiring the voice coils in parallel (+ to + , - to - on the same speaker wire) will effectively halve your impedance load on the amplifier for two speakers. Low impedance can also appear as a short to some amplifiers, that's why we need to be sure it's stable at the level we want it to operate at, otherwise the amp goes into protection, or internal damage can occur.
