Ohm question?

[admin_exported]

I got delivery of my MA RS8's today have plugged them in to my amp and moved the Mision 775's to the back. Bit of a boo boo.

My STR DA1200ES can set impedance at 4 or 8ohms. The RS8's are 6ohm and the 775's 8ohm. I think the center speaker is 8ohm too.

Will I have to change my amp/speakers?

Feel a bit stupid not thinking about this earlier. I noticed that the RS8's needed more driving and the 775's were louder than they should be when I played an SACD. I don't think I have broken anything but all is turned off for now until I get some sound advice.

No, you won't damage anything. The system should be fine on the 8ohm setting, but if you want to be cautious, use the 4ohm. And re-run your calibration to integrate all the speakers together with the receiver again.

Thanks Andrew, I'll give that a blast.
