Question , running 2 sets of speakers using Cambridge Audio 651 A

[moon]

I intend to set up a simple multi - room system using my excellent Cambridge Audio 651 A.

The amplifier can run two sets of speakers.

The first set is the Wharfedale Diamond 9.1 which rates at 6 Ohms & 86 sensitivity.

The second set are 8 ohms but 84 sensitivity.

I think the Cambridge is 75 watts into 8 ohms.

My question is this. I do not intend to run both sets of speakers at the same time due to their location. However, if they should be playing at the same time would it damage the amp or speakers? Or would it not matter for small amounts of time?

Cheers

Should be absolutely fine. It has quite a bit of power and has cutout so no danger of frying the amp.

Many thanks, john. I'll hook the Dali's up in the bedroom then. :dance:
