The lowest the impedance curve is 5 ohms below 120 Hz so two in parallel is half that or 2.5 ohms. But you also have to take into account the reactance, where the voltage and current are out of phase which can only make the load worse.

It won't reach 2 ohm as minimumm load then.
- Depends on your method of "...- below 120Hz" - Edp 08:18:16 07/24/24 (2)
  If you do passive filter, you will get below 2 ohms
  
  What amp are you planning to torture with this load? Car Audio, Pro or Sound Reinforcement Audio?
  
  SEAS does make an 8 ohm L10ROY, but sealed only, or a giant Transmission Line

    I'm upgrading my reference, and the Linkwitz is under consideration for my small room.
    - Linkwitz LX521 (Open in New Window)
    - Define "small room" - Edp 14:43:41 07/25/24 (0)
      Any dipole speaker, no matter its construction or method, they need room from back wall or benefit of dipole greatly diminished and turns into a foe to be slain.
      
      LX5 series is not normally a small room speaker, but there are different definitions of small room
      
      As to your questions on amps required for dual four ohm speakers, the Linkwitz site has detailed answers as to amp types depending on the different filtering methods and amp types
