>That is what I thought about the 3ohm rating also, but I did notice the 3ohm rating is for the (front) only and so is the 4ohm rating. The all channel rating is 6ohm. Maybe I'll just risk it.

True, though I view it as how much time will all channels be driven simultaneously and why even list a 3/4ohm dynamic headroom rating if it didn't have a 'stiff' enough power supply to handle the occasional difficult load? Add the fact that historically, Onkyo builds bullet proof power supplies, it seems a reasonable risk.
Still, DR has to know his own speakers, so if he thinks they'll present too tough a load for that particular receiver in a multi-channel system........
