I agree with @gibbsy , there's no issue for you with these KEF speakers. All nominally rated 8 Ohm speakers have much lower dips somewhere along their frequency curve. Also as they're quite sensitive and you listen at moderate volume levels they'll never be hard to drive for you, especially when used with a sub.
Not that the Q900s are 4 Ohm speakers but Gene at Audioholics did an article years ago which you might find useful in which he created a "ready reckoner" table as a guide to when you might have issues powering low true 4 Ohm speakers with a receiver.
Connecting 4-ohm Speakers to an 8-ohm Receiver
Basically, provided you've got at least reasonably efficient speakers and are using a mid to upper range AVR then you shouldn't ever really have any issues.
