Impedance issue with Elite 45 (1 Viewer)

[jaydee]

The 45 allows an adjustment to the system to set for 6ohms. I just want to know if I'm loosing anything by matching all 6 ohm speakers to a system that recomends 8ohms.
Glad I didn't buy the Rockets, their center channel is 4 ohms.

I believe all you are gaining is a little more amp power and some heat.I had similar issues when I bought an Onkyo 600,it said 6 ohm min,all my fronts were 4 OHM.Ended up taking it back and getting an HK 520.Speaker impedance,was one of many many thing I had no clue about till I started really getting interested in this stuff.
