The Onkyo will handle the 4ohm load just fine. I'm running a 4ohm load with the Integra DTR-8.2 and have no problems. I am going to side with Sogood51. The overall sound I enjoy is so good right now, I'm tempted to go separates. I would consider this if I were you.
Comparing the Denon 3803 with the Onkyo TX-SR800
Has anyone compared the Denon AVR 3803 with the Onkyo TX-SR 800? I am planning to purchase one and need advice. Which receiver is more likely to be able to handle a 4 Ohm load running a pair of Legacy Classics (Front), Studios (Rear), and a Silverscreen center channel all 4 Ohm speakers? I am looking for what receiver will be the most musicsl for recordings, as well as good in a home theater setting. Would I be better off looking into a Harmon Kardon AVR-8000? Any Advice would be helpful.
