Hi,
I've just ordered the new Sony STR-DB1080QS reciever mainly because of it's ability to output audio to 2 sets of speakers (A+B). Apparently this reciever uses a parallel speaker-connection when running with both the A & B speakers on.
The main room speakers is a standard 5.1 speaker-setup with 6 ohms impedance on each front speakers. (JAMO E610PDD)
The 2nd room speakers is a pair of cheap speakers with standard 8 ohm impedance.
Using my limited knowledge of speakers and impedance, i've calculated the total impedance as follows:
(6 * 8) / (6 + 8) = 3,43 Ohms.
QUESTION: will this present a problem, if I select 4 ohms on the amp ?
Can I damage my speakers and/or reciever ?
Any comments would be greatly appreciated !
Thanks,
Kenn
