For Mack it's safe. No worries.
4 speakers, 2 channel amp
Newbie question that I think I already know the answer to. I feel I need to ask anyway.......
I have a McIntosh MC2200 amp that can put out 200 WPC at 8 ohms. Can I safely at low volume hook four speakers to this amp, two at the four ohm tap and the other two at eight ohms?
Speakers are lower end Paradigms that sound better at four ohms. I love the sound of speakers both in front of and behind me. The newbie in me says that as long as I don't exceed 200 watts of total output, the amp will tolerate this. Is that wrong?
BTW this would be a temporary setup until I can afford a second amp.
