geoff:   
   But that's what it sounded like you said 6 posts ago:   
      
   "..so ann amp specced at 8 ohms *may* have trouble with a 6 ohm   
   load on peaks, but a 4 ohm output won't have any problem at all.. "   
      
   Reads to me like my 8-16 receiver won't have problems driving 4ohms.   
      
   "And 16 doesn't matter - if your amp will do the lower ones, it'll be   
   just fine with a lesser load (= higher Z).   
      
   geoff "   
      
   And that's what's confused me for decades:   HOW could a 16ohm speaker present   
   a LESSER load to the amp driving it than a 8ohm speaker??  Ohms measure   
   impedance, so a higher ohm figure instinctively means higher imp   
   dance(resistance).   
      
      
   And N0ne/Nil/Alrich STAY THE FUCK OUT of this conversation and let geoff   
   clarify what he said!!
