Default amps, speakers, impedance

heya, got a question for ya

Lets say I have a two-channel amp that puts out 300 watts into a 4 ohm load on each channel.

If I had an 8-ohm speaker going into each channel, each speaker would be receiving 150 watts?

If I instead wired both 8 ohm speakers in parallel (creating a 4-ohm load) and plugged both of them into just ONE of the amp channels, then I'd have 300 watts split between the two speakers (still 150 watts each)?

Thanks
Matt
