I have 2 6ohm speakers on an A channel, and I'd like to add a B channel of 2 other speakers, and play in A+ B mode. What ohm rating of new speakers does this receiver want to see? null

Hi brosh,

Thank you so much for your inquiry.

When using both the SPEAKERS A and B terminals, we recommend connecting speakers with a nominal impedance of 12 ohms or higher. And when you connect speakers to either SPEAKERS A or B terminals, we recommend connecting speakers with a nominal impedance of 8 ohms or 6 ohms.

Hope this helps, and thanks for choosing Sony!
