Amp and speaker selector for 4 ohm speakers

 

Vince
I bought a house with hard wired wall and ceiling speakers--4 pair of Infinity @4 ohm and one pair of Boston acoustic @ 8 ohm. All have volume control and 14 ga wire.
I have a Yamaha CX-830 Amp and Yamaha MX-630 pre amp. I have a niles HDL-6 as a speaker selector.

I have melted two of the Niles speaker selectors
with the protection button ON.

I think the yamaha can not handle the 4 ohm loads.

Any help/suggestions appreciated.
Reading messages here should I get a new receiver like a HK 325?
 

Sounds like the speaker selector can't handle the watts your pumping thru it.

Speaker selector is supposed to handle 250 watts

Contact Niles customer service, either by phone or e-mail. I am sure they will tell you what is causing the problem.
