My receiver(as well as most built in the last 20 years) calls for 8-16ohm loads.


"6" ? I guess they couldn't decide on 4 or 8, so split the difference.

Many amps of this era work down to 4 ohms. 16 ohms is pretty much only
valve (tube) and antique solid-state amps, though of course 16 will in
fact work with any output lower.
