    umm it's hard to tell. That speaker dips lower than 6 ohms a lot. It will run pretty hot, I wouldn't be trying to blast your windows out with that. Try to find an amp that can do the lower impediances. The Arcam will work, but it will got hot fast and may burn up earlier if it doesn't have a protection mode.

    Arcam website clearly states in its technical specs that the A65 will do 80 watts into 4 ohms @ 1 Khz. Since these amps are very well engineered and well built I would have no reservations about using my 4 ohm PSB Stratus Silvers with this amp. Just be sure its the only pair you connect to the amp.

    I owned an Alpha 8 briefly, it had no problem driving some 4 ohm speakers I owned...if 4 ohms is the minimum impedance on your PSB's you shouldn't have any problem...
