    yamaha question (last one!)

    I am about to purchase a yamaha htr 5760, but I have one snag my sorround speakers are 4 ohm speakers, while the receiver is rated for 8 ohms.

    Considering the relativly little use the sorrounds get I don't think the receiver will be bothered, but I wanted to get other opinions

    there klipsch speakers by the way

    thankyou

    None of Yamaha's sub $1000 receivers clearly state they can run 4 ohm speakers in the surround channels. I've run 4 ohm speakers off the mains before without issue, but the center/surrounds only have settings for 6 ohms. That being said I don't think you'd have to much of a problem unless you listen to ear-bleeding volumes, but don't take it from me, I've fried a few cheap integrated amps and receivers in my day
