Panasonic digital amps and 4 ohm speakers


I've been looking at buying one of the new Panasonic XR digital receivers (SA-XR50 or SA-XR70), but the XR50 specifies 6-16 ohms. Anyone tried using one of these (or the older XR45) with a 4 ohm speaker?

I've got some GMA Europas on order, and was hoping to mate them with one of the new Panasonic receivers. Any reason not to?

My room is only 12 x 19, I listen mostly to 2 channel, and mostly listen at low to moderate levels. Definitely want to be able to crank it up every now and then, though. Thanks for any help.

Hi,
I just bought a panasonic xa 50 from j and r music for a second system. I am using a philips 963sa as dvd player. I ran a digital out from the 963 to the panny. It will not play sacd's. Cd plays, though. Also, i want to put it into "party mode" to double the power to my main speakers. It says no "sfm" for this pcm source. Can i use the party mode? Why not?
Thanks guys.
Hi,
I am sending the signal from my philips 963 sacd/cd player thru the digital input{coax} to the panny. Maybe i need to turn off the upsampler?
