Why not? They're above the minimum
stated on the back of his receiver.

how they sound"
Typical 'engineer' statement. Fine:
Remove all impedance specs from
the backs of speakers, receivers, and
amplifiers. While we're at it, remove
signal presence and OL single LED
indicators and all the meters from
DAWs and mixing consoles.
Remove the specifications page
from the website and from the operators
manuals. It doesn't matter right?
Whether to run balanced or unbalanced
lines, whether this component is over
heating, that one is distorting, or the
other one is clipping. As long as it
"sounds good" "Use your ears"!!!

It was stupid once. Thrice is stupider.

I'll give K-Man a tiny bit of credit for having learned
a few things since he started posting here.
However, it seems the world of difference between
consumer gear "specs" and pro gear specs.
[The quality of /prosumer/ specs are a total toss-up.]
When Scott and others here say "use your ears" there
are a lot of unstated assumptions that pro and semi-pro
understand with out the need for a detailed /caveat/ list.
