Hi
I've got an old amplifier (Pioneer SA-2001), it's got 4 channels (65w/channel). On the back, it says that it supports 8 and 16 ohm speaker and that you need to see the manual for 4 ohm use. I looked up the manual online, but can't seem to find anything. For years, I've used 4, 4 ohm speakers without a problem (the amplifier has watt-meters on the front panel so as long as they don't exceed 65w continuous, this shouldn't be a problem, I guess)
Now, I want to connect 2 4 ohm speakers and 2 8 ohm speakers.. I haven't tried it yet, but my guess would be that at a certain volume level, the 4 ohm speakers would be way louder than the other ones. What could I do to fix this?
Regards
