Speaker Impedance ... nominal 6 ohms


I see many speakers listed with an impedance of nominal 6 ohms. I have two amps. One allows me to choose between 4 and 8 ohms nominal impedance. And one Jolida that only has an 8 ohms connection at the back.

Can I use speakers with an impedance of nominal 6 ohms? And how would I hook them up?

Thanks

Hi Kossi

Thanks for posting a thread about this topic. I always wondered about this. I always thought that if your speaker had a 6 ohm nominal impedance that either your receiver (if possible) would have to be set to 4 ohms or the 4 ohm taps on a tube amp had to be used. Good to know.
