So I got this AVR a few days ago to pair with the 683's and I have to admit I LOVE the sound. I assigned the back two channels to bi-amp the speakers. Everything is great, but when I bring it up about -10 on volume the AVR goes into auto protect. The people at NAD said this is due to the fact that my speakers are going below the ohm load that the AVR can handle (4 ohms appears to be the lowest NAD can handle) and if I want to listen at that volume I should get a separate 2 channel amp. I'm honestly ok with that down the line, but i just want to make sure this receiver isn't defective. Is this something that should happen with my set up? I figured for sure this AVR could handle my speakers.
