cody, you got it backwards.

Actually, most home recievers/amplifiers these days are made to handle 4 ohms. This is because many of them include hook-ups for additional pairs of speakers powered by the same channels and usually accesable by buttons or switches. Provided that reciever does posess that trait you should be more than fine to run with the 4 ohm speakers. I have a Pioneer Reciever and the owners manual even lists the power outputs with different impedences of speakers. You should check with the manufacturer of the amp to be sure but it should not be a problem.
