Always try both taps because you never know what you may find out is how I have always done things. If these measure anything alike the S1EX's, and they surely should in the bass region, they will play a highly capacitance load down below 4 ohms (3.6 ohms to be exact). Anyhoo, I personally need to try the 8 ohm tap myself since I assumed 4 ohms would work best knowing that even Pioneers rating is 6 ohms, though it is rated more as I say, 4-8 or so ohms. Not sure if you still listen to these speakers, but I absolutely love the S1EX and suspect the S3EX to sound wonderful also.
Mastersound Compact 845
Just purchased the above and I am loving it. Moved away from a Bryston system. Also made a change to my speakers at the same time. Had little Totem Model 1 Sigs and went with the Pioneer S-3EX speakers. The combo sounds great. I never thought there could be such a night and day type of change.
The Mastersound Compact 845 lets you attach your speaker cables to 4ohm or 8ohm posts. My Pioneer's are 88.5db at 6ohm. What would be the recommended speaker posts. I am currently using the 8ohm post and it sounds great. Am hesitant to try 4ohm in case it damages something.
Any thoughts are greatly appreciated.
Thanks
