bookshelf speaker recommendations

That is not true. Clipping just doesn't souly depend on the load the receiver is driving. It also includes what volume the load is being driven at. If that were the case, receivers would not clip when driving 8 ohm loads but they do. Would they clip easier at 4 ohms? Sure they would but it doesn't mean they can't be used carefully with 4 ohm loads.

I have a POS Panasonic HT reciever and the manufacturer only recommneds using 8Ohm speakers. Well, all of my PSBs are rated for 6 ohms and I have cranked that receiver without any audible distortion.

I didnt think I said anything to contradict your statements above. The statements you make are absolutely correct, and I agree with you 100%.

I would only change the word "Volume" to a more suitable word, which escapes me. hehe... I think saying "Higher Watts" would be better, for volume depends on the speakers efficency.

Actually that last statment is nit picking, and could be considered a bit rude. I hope you accept my appoligy in advance, and understand that I dont mean any disrespect.

I have been buying Audio Concepts speakers the last five years.
