to facilitate biwiring, not necessarily two pairs of speakers. However, the UPA-1s can handle a 4 Ohm load, so connect your selected loudspeakers accordingly.

A pair of 6 Ohm speakers and a pair of 8 Ohm speakers connected to the two pairs of binding posts on the UPA-1 (parallel) would result in an impedance of 3.4286, not 14 Ohms. Not advised.

hey thanks, that helps alot. although my gut instinct was not to hook up these two speakers to the one UPA 1. thanks again jackfish, best regards.
