Hi,
I'm rebuilding a 1970's stereo cabinet with modern components, It will be set up as a 2.1 system, I currently have qty (2) Sononance MAG6Rs for my mids and tweeters (8 ohms). I have a receiver that shows 6-16 ohms resistance (Denon AVR-1913) and the subwoofer driver I'm looking at shows 4 ohms (Dayton RSS210HO-4 8"). If I'm building an enclosure with a powered plate amp (rated for 4 ohms, I'm looking at a Dayton SPA250DSP). I'll hook up the receiver to the plate amp with an RCA, in this case does the receiver just act as a pre-amp and the impedance for the plate amp works for the woofer, or do I need to be worried about the difference in impedance burning up my receiver (or at least putting it into protection mode if the volume is turned up too high)?
Thanks!
