Hello trustbutverify, thanks for your question!

Yes, you can mix and match different speaker impedances with your STR-AZ5000ES.

Your receiver has a Speaker Impedance setting (found in Setup > Speaker Settings > Manual Speaker Settings) that you should adjust:

(1) If any of your speakers are 4 Ohms, set the receiver to [4 Ω].
(2) If all your speakers are 8 Ohms or higher, set it to [8 Ω].

The receiver supports speakers with an impedance between 4 Ω and 16 Ω. Always double-check your speaker manuals for their specific impedance, and refer to your receiver's manual for detailed guidance: https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/res/manuals/5037/31780bc97a61dc1c52bf3d677cc6a7aa/50370191M.pdf

Hope this resolves your concern. Thanks for choosing Sony!

Sincerely,
Jenn.
