I bought a Kenwood home theatre setup last year for my PC sound system, and like everything else, after buying the receiver, satellites, and centre, (package) I had limited funds left for a set of main (stereo) speakers. I picked up the best pair of craptastic towers that I could afford back then.
Upgrade time.
The receiver calls for an 8 ohm or higher speaker, and I was wondering if 4 ohm would actually work.
Anybody use 4 ohms and get away with it?
I live in a basement apartment, so it only gets cranked for short stints when no one is home upstairs, otherwise it's medium to low for the everyday mp3/dvd/gaming. The amp is thermally protected too.
I had problems with amps cutting out back in high school, when I wired the car in series to get down to 2 ohms...but that was also 1200 watts, and crank it up and throw away the knob type use.
...and yes, most of my conversations now do involve me using the word 'pardon?' one or two times.
