I have been banging my head to find a good home theatre receiver that can drive my B&W DM610i front speakers (rated at 4 ohms)while driving the other speakers in my setup. Most HT receivers say that they will only handle 8 ohms, but the Sony 2000ES seems to say it can handle 4 ohms as long as you are not using A&B front speakers (i.e. a total of nine speakers). Does anybody know if this is true? Also, is the 2000ES a good sound match for B&W speakers? Your input would be greatly appreciated!
