Cidrack Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 Hi Guys, I have Jamo Surround in 6ohms and my frontal speakers is Klipsch 8ohms. Any problem with that? What is the correct impedance that I have to set in my Yamaha receiver? Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willland Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 Set the Yamaha at 8ohms or the highest available setting. My Onkyo TX-SR705 has 6ohm or 4ohm options. Bill 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Youthman Posted June 15, 2017 Moderators Share Posted June 15, 2017 Keep in mind the rating on your speaker is Nominal meaning average. My simple understanding is the ohm load fluctuates depending on what frequency is being played through the speakers and possibly other factors. For example, my RF-7's are 8ohm speakers but dip down to around 2ohm. So no worries on mixing 6 and 8ohm speakers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YK Thom Posted June 17, 2017 Share Posted June 17, 2017 You will be fine, my fronts are 6ohm Ohm Walsh, everything else is 8ohm Klipsch, works and sounds fine. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoboKlipsch Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 6 is really not a problem at all, many speakers rated at 8 are 6ish. It's when you use a 4ohm speaker that some AVRs shut down. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
