Ohms

[Boy Lover]

I have a receiver that is from Kenwood and it has a ohms selector but should I use this amp instead? My amps model is KR-A5020 its very old. Ohms selector meaning it says less than 8 ohms slide the switch here and for 8 ohms or more slide it the other way. It says this in back of my old Kenwood amp. its rated 200 watts

Well your other amp obviously doesn't like the lower impediance of the speakers you are using so don't use it anymore. You won't hurt the speakers, but you will hurt/ruin the amp if you keep running those speakers when it keeps saying warning. If the Kenwood amp has a switch for speakers with a lower impediance, use it and set the switch to "less than 8 ohms," and you should be fine.

Well actualy I think it said caution. I checked and it didnt say warning.

It doesnt blink and say warning I was saying it was printed in the back of the amp but I found out it said caution not warning.
