Default Speaker Impedence ?

Is the 8 ohm warning only necessary if I have both sets of speakers
enabled, or is it relevant even if I have two sets connected, but only
one enalbled at a time.


** The warning is about using a load that has an impedance less than 4 ohms - cos the makers figure the amp is at it's safe limit with that number.

But makers also know that overheating will not occur unless the amp is played to its output power limit - as it might be during a party.

You need to keep both facts in mind.
