Rotel 1052 and magnepan MMG


I have a rotel 1052 in the manual it only mentions 8 0hms nothing on 4 ohms it does have 100 watts per channel. the mmg are 4 ohms speakers.Would it hurt the receiver to drive these speakers .

I used to drive my SMGc's with a Rotel 60W integrated. No problem going plenty loud, but the problem is that the dynamics were very compressed, which took a lot of excitement out of the listening experience. Small Maggie's need at least 100W of high-current power to get good dynamics.
