geoff:
But that's what it sounded like you said 6 posts ago:

"..so ann amp specced at 8 ohms *may* have trouble with a 6 ohm
load on peaks, but a 4 ohm output won't have any problem at all.. "

Reads to me like my 8-16 receiver won't have problems driving 4ohms.

"And 16 doesn't matter - if your amp will do the lower ones, it'll be
just fine with a lesser load (= higher Z).

geoff "

And that's what's confused me for decades: HOW could a 16ohm speaker present a LESSER load to the amp driving it than a 8ohm speaker?? Ohms measure impedance, so a higher ohm figure instinctively means higher impedance(resistance).


And N0ne/Nil/Alrich STAY THE **** OUT of this conversation and let geoff clarify what he said!!
