In Reply to: HELP! Have I hurt my HT Receiver????? posted by Kolonay on March 1, 2005 at 19:47:26:
Even 8 ohm rated speakers will have an impedance curve that will likely dip below 8 ohm somewhere in the frequencies they reproduce. In other words: some 8 ohm speakers may present a load near 4 ohm sometimes.The receiver may just not do as well with 4 ohm speakers. Or the power rating for the receiver is totally different at 4 ohm than it is for 8 ohm.
One thing to watch out for: does the receiver get super hot when you run music with the 4 ohm speakers for an hour or so? If so, they might be a problem. But if you can safely touch the top with your hand without fear of burns, you're likely okay. Just watch out for overheating.
my 2 cents!
