[EDIT: That title should read "6 ohm & *8* ohm speakers", looks like it's uneditable tho...]
Hi all...
Apologies if the answer to this is obvious - putting together my first basic 5.1 setup and haven't been able to find a clear answer via Google and whatnot.
Currently I've got a pair of 6-ohm front speakers (Pioneer SP-BS41-LR), a sub, and a 5.1 receiver (Yamaha RX-V371BL). The receiver's default is 8-ohm, but there is an overall 6-ohm setting (i.e. applied across the board rather than channel specific).
I've noticed that 6-ohm rear and centers are far less common so am wondering if the receiver can handle mixing in 8-ohm speakers for those, keeping in mind it would be set to the 6-ohm option. Or am I best off keeping a uniform impedance throughout the system?
Any advice would be much appreciated...
