Not really a problem.More recievers are rated this way,I don't know why.As long as its a name brand reciever and you don't keep the thing at 10 all the time it should do the job.I'd add a powered sub to help the bottom end though.
The reciever is not 6 Ohms. The speakers determine the Ohm load not the reciever. The manufacturer is just using 6 Ohms as an example. So a reciever that says it is 100 Watts at 6 ohms with .5% distortion might also be 80 watts at 8 Ohms with .08% distortion. It is a way some manufacturers use to give inflated power ratings. As long as the reciever is powerfull enough to drive your speakers without distorting you are fine.
