I have a Yamaha rx s600 I have it set for 8 ohms can I use this unit.

Yes. This is capable of handling 100 watts at 5 ohms. 100 watts with an 8 ohm impedance out of the amplifier will supply less current than this is capable of handling, you may need to turn the sub's volume up slightly higher for more output. My amp is a 6 ohm 100w, it's just about right.

The receiver can easily drive 4 ohm speakers. The RMS power rating of 80W applies to 8 ohm speakers, so the power output for 4 ohms will be somewhat greater.You can change the speaker impedance from the default setting of 8 ohms to 4 ohms using the "Advanced Setup" menu as described on page 37 of the owner's manual.

I think so,but it depends on the ohms.If you're using 1 cab it has to be 4 ohms not 8,but check that.If you run 1 cab the amp runs at 4 ohms,if you run 2 cabs it runs at 8.

This unit does have an 8 OHM output so it should support that. I personally have not tired these outputs, so I do not know what it sounds like, or if the unit would run hot.

Shouldn't matter as long as your stereo system is pushing 8 ohms output. The only thing you might notice is different sets of speakers might have different volume levels when playing them together.

Dear Kathy,This Yamaha receiver will be able to power 4ohm speakers but Yamaha does not list exact power to 4ohm speakers. You will need to tell the receiver during the setup procedure what type of speakers you are using.Regards,Eric CohenWorld Wide Stereo

I have not hooked it up yet. On my receiver though I have separate sub woofer outputs. Put if you do hook it up in parallel it would be 4 ohms. Most systems are ok at 4 ohms.

Yes you can, and I am doing so myself. There is a Sub Out Channel with its own connections and Volume Control on this Amp.Be careful, this amp alone has at 8ohms, according to my Meters a Min., of 300watts RMS, it cranks out some power. Just remember this, and watch your Volume settings on the Sub Channel before turning it on to test it. Also, a must do, red to red, black to black. Mixing those 2 (positive & negative), will blow up your Amp. Also, there is a Prc-Pro out channel in the back, which is cross bridged with the Sub Channels. This is handy for the High End EQ's. Hope this helps you. Jim

No. It can only handle 4 or 8 ohms. 8 ohms when the amp is used in bridged mode.

I am not totally sure. I know that when I bought this product i was trying to use it on my Yamaha reciver to connect my unpowered subwoofer and this did not work. I returned it with no problems.

No, you shouldn't. Ohms are a measure of impedance and shoukd be matched between the speaker and the amplifier. Will it work? Yes, but it will overdrive the amp, lead to wxcessive heat and (substantially) shorter life.

This unit is built for output impedance 4-8 Ohm. By using 2 Ohm speakers you are risking to burn unit amplifier; this is not really high end equipment. This unit has RCA output and option to attach an amplifier; that would be better way to go.

There is a setting on the 573 to set speaker impedance to 6 Ohms. See p 80 of the owner's manual. http://download.yamaha.com/api/asset/file/?language=it&site=it.yamaha.com&asset_id=54064

no.. it will be under powered.. even if the sub were a dual 8 ohm, the lowest you could wire it is 4 ohm, then you'd still be getting half power. Sell your sub because unless you're going to run 3 of them or more, an 8 ohm is pretty useless. The other repliers obviously have no idea what they're talking about so I hope you didn't buy this amp for that sub haha

I have 8 ohm B&W; cs1 speakers and use 6ohm without an issue. I'm not sure why they didn't design it for 8ohm
154633
I don't see that as a problem. I have my CS20 hooked up to a Yamaha RX-V671 which has about the same output. Should sound great!

Why would u want this sub wired at 8 ohms, if anything u should wire it down to 2 ohms
