    Rotel 1058 and 4 ohm speakers

    Hi - newbie here. Curious as to thoughts on using a 1058 to drive only a pair of KEF Reference Model Three speakers. They spec at 4 ohms and I understand they can drop to 3.5. Any thoughts or suggestions appreciated.

    I would not expect any problems running those speakers with your Rotel. Keep an eye out for how hot the unit gets when you drive them.
