Denon 4802 and Axiom speakers (2 Viewers)

[Chris Tabor]

I have the denon 4802 receiver and I was wondering if the axiom m80ti towers would work alright with it? I noticed they are 4 ohm speakers. Can you mix 4 ohm and 8 ohm or 6 and 8, etc...? Also I noticed there surrounds are 6 ohm. Are they gonna work ok with it also? In the end I would like to have all of the top axiom speakers for my Home theater setup but I noticed they have differents ohms. Whats the difference between 4,6,and 8 ohm speakers?

Impedance ratings are irrelevant. They just show you the speakers average impedance. Various speakers will fluctuate from 2 ohms to 20 ohms. The 4802 should be able to handle the Axioms easily.

Thanks Jason, any other info from anyone would be greatly appreciated.

I've read the denon 4802 has a protector that trips when you run it for long with 4 ohm speakers like the m80ti axioms are rated at.
