Rotel RSX-1056 (8 ohmx) with Vienna Acstcs. Schonberg (4 ohms)

[lio2000]

Dear All,
It is the first time for me to post here and as far as I have seen in the previous threads, it is THE place to find answers to my questions about Rotel.

I just bought an RSX-1056 and DVD RDV-1060 at a local store and the dealer wanted to make me try its Viennsa Acoustics Schonberg. They were absolutely stunning in the showroom, so when I went back home with my rotel I definitely wanted to change my current speakers

However, by looking at some websites, I noticed that on the back of the rotel the impedance is "MINIUM 8 Ohms" while the Schonberg speakers are only 4 Ohms.

I am not so professional regarding this matter. Is it a problem ? does it affect significantly sound quality? am I going to fry something (ie the amp or the speaker) if I configure my HT that way?

Thank you very much for your reply

You should be fine. There are numerous threads on this issue if you do a search that go into more detail but the Rotel should have zero problem with the Vienna Acoustics speakers.
