the new NAD A/V receivers will drive a 4-ohm load without current-limiting or problems, though I don't have direct experience with those units.




Are you kidding me? you can arc weld with them! lol. But really, i beieve on the recievers that they deliver whatever the rated power is, into 8 or 4 ohms. At least thats the way it is with their other amps (370,270 etc) and they have the rated clipping power in 8,4, and 2 ohms.
