If it can take a 4 ohm load it will handle a 6 ohm load just fine. It is just not listed what it is rated at for a 6 ohm load. Most amps that list only 8 ohm specs can handle 6 ohm load with no problem, and most of the time can handle a 4 ohm load.

If you're looking at an amp that will do 330 watts at 4 ohms and 200 watts at 8 ohms, that's an indication of no current limiting and a nice generous power supply. Without knowing much more, I'd say it's probably a good amp...

In accordance with the Ohm's Law ... Paul, I agree that this amp has a nice power supply. In my opinion to have a good power supply the amp has to lose less then 20% with 4 ohms load in comparison with 8 ohms, for example:
200W at 8 ohms, ideal situation P=U*U/R, if U=const (ideal power supply) and R changed from 8 ohms to 4 ohms, ideal power =400W
The loss in this particular device: 330W/400W= 82% (the loss is 18%), so you are right, this is a good amp.
