I have an Onkyo TX-8050 receiver with Bose 151 outdoor 4 Ohm speakers on the speaker "A" connections for outside patio use. The TX-8050 impedance is set at 4 Ohms for the outside speakers.
I want to add Definitive ProMonitor 800 speakers (8 Ohm speakers) to the "B" connections on the receiver for inside use.
The receiver only allows setting speaker Ohms (4 Ohm to 16Ohm) for both "A" and "B" connections at the same Ohm level.
Could I damage my receiver using mixed Ohm sets of speakers?
If I can run both sets of speakers, should I leave receiver speakers Ohm setting at 4?
Thanks!
Ted
