Different impedence between amplifier and loudspeakers.

Hi:

I'm planning on buying the next hardware:

Musical Fidelity M6i
Musical Fidelity M6CD

But i want to use them on 2 PSB Synchrony One, now the question is the amplifier M6i responds in 8 ohms but the loudspeakers in 4 Ohms, are these things compatible??? Am i going to face some problems using this combination? Some told me that i can make the amplifier work on 4 Ohms but the amount of watts sent to the loudspeakers will double so it will damage the equipment. (English is not my native language so sorry for any mistakes).

coding above 96kHz

Art Dudley is either trolling or hasn't been paying attention to the ADDA manufacturers as regards Nyquist and people not saying enough is enough. Dan Lavry (Lavry Engineering) has been arguing since the first 4X clocking converters came out that they were more than overkill and even detrimental to making the sound better.

So if you were looking for the answer of your "quiz" there it is. A little google in the pro audio pages will reveal many bytes of argument there (and lots of flames).

2. Samuel Barber, Adagio for Strings
3. Joaquín Rodrigo, Concierto de Aranjuez
