Any amp will drive a 4 ohm load even an S.E.T. It's just that they will not do it efficently. Therefore their performance and sound quality will suffer. You will limit the performance of your speakers, especialy at higher volumes. A.V. Receivers just work better with high sensitivity high impedance speakers, as do S.E.T.'s. The other thing that is important is how flat their impedence is. Flatter is better except when talking about women!Remember an A.V. Receiver does a hole lot of work. The more work it does the worse it's sound quality. At least thats been my experience. When freinds ask for my advice on a A.V. Receiver I always tell them simpler is better, same with the speakers i.e. when it comes to impedance loads. The only way to know is to try the combo and let your ears tell you what you want to know.
