Hello everyone,
I will really appreciate your diligent response to my question. I home run 1 pair of speakers (8 ohms per speaker) to the wiring closet and 2 pair of speakers in the living room and another 2 pair in the kitchen was home run to the wiring closet. My 2 pair speaker zones were connected in parallel, therefore making it 4 ohms (8 ohms/2). I do realized that the nuvo grand concerto supports only 6 ohms per zone. Is it ok if I connect all the speakers to the nuvo GC without endangering its lifespan. In summary
Master Room speaker - 1 pair - zone 1 - 8 ohms
Living room - 2 pair - zone 2 - 4 ohms (ran in parallel)
2nd room speaker- 1 pair - zone 3 - 8 ohms
kitchen speaker - 2 pair- zone 4 - 4 ohms (ran in parallel)
patio speaker - 1 pair- zone 5 - 8 ohms
office speaker- 1 pair- zone 6 - 8 ohms
theater room speaker - 1 pair- zone 7 - 8 ohms
laundry speaker- single speaker- zone 8 - 8 ohms
If I connect 8 ohms to 6 ohms amplifier (nuvo GC), will it auto adjust itself and operate the speakers at 6 ohms?
If you were me, how would you go about this? I called NUVO technical support but the tech guys told me its okay but I'm still worried about the impedance overloading. Thanks
