It will be best to leave it at 8 ohms even if you have 6 ohm speakers. Most receivers operate better in the 8 ohm mode and are just required to have a 6 ohm switch to meet UL guidelines.

Like avaserfi said, leave it at 8 ohms and you'll be fine.

i agree. just make sure your receiver has sufficient ventilation. (space above and on the sides)

an open rack would be the best!
