I was pretty sure it works with speakers with 4 ohms, but looking at specs., it seems not. Does it or not?

Yes it does. It will get pretty warm if you drive it hard with 4 ohm speakers (it is only 75 watts per channel after all) but it will work just fine.

+1. All the updates to the RSX-1055 (RSX-1056,57.58 ) will handle 4 ohm speakers as long as used within reason. You should be fine if your speaker's sensitivity is not abnormally low, room size is not too large and damped, and normal volume levels are not exceedingly loud.Comment

I was told by Mike at Rotel USA my 1057 would handle 4 ohm speakers.Comment

I too like TommyV was told by Rotel this was not a problem and my experience supports this. The Emotiva 8.3 at 89db sensitivity should work fine.Comment

Jon/others, a guitar guy asked me a question, I guess because I seemed pretty knowledgable about loads and impedence. But I still want to make sure I am thinking right on this...
Here was his question:
I figure since the amp is rated at a 4 or 8 ohm load,... -
I setup my system with The mic, and It put my speakers on 6 ohms. I can only put it on 6 or 4 ohms. Does any one know how I can change it to 8 ohms? -
Not sure if its been asked or not, but just to confirm does 1057 support hdmi mon.out or not? I upgraded my projector to jvc x35 and it doesn't have rca con. like Panasonic 4000 did, I'm not sure hot to make it work to adjust settings... -
Bought an RMB-1075 and am using the RSX-1057 as the pre. The 1057 is still as hot as it was when using the amps in it, even though no speakers are now connected to it. Is there a way to turn the amps off in it, or something to do to reduce the amount of heat it is putting out? It's not abnormally hot,... -
Can Yamaha Rx-v365(Europe version) drive 8 ohm speakers?I think it's a 6 ohm rated receiver(Us and Europe versions are different) which can drive 4 ohm speakers too.
Here are some specs of it I could find on Yamaha Uk webpage.
RMS Power (8 ohms, 20Hz-20kHz) [THD]: 100W x 5 [6 ohms]...
