Greenhorn question: Beware!

Is a 4 ohm exciter speaker and a 6 ohm woofer box, wired in series (total 10 ohm) connected to an 8 ohm output amp OK?

@audiokinesis  You are BLOWING MY MIND dude!  Haha I've read your posts like three times and feel like I'm back in college trying to get my M.E. degree (I got kicked out).  I just can't wrap my head around this stuff...  I know great sound when I hear it though!  ;)  P.S. I'm a photographer now

Sorry, sometimes my inner nerd takes control.  Lemme try that last post again, this time in English:

You probably won't blow anything up by running the exciters in series with the speakers, as long as you don't turn the volume control up too high.  But the speakers may not sound very good.  I think the highs will be diminished by having the exciters in series. 

I flunked out of mechanical engineering too.

Honest thanks for the help.  With more info like what was given above, ...at some point, I will not have to ask simple questions.  Thanks a LOT!
