I am auditioning a B&K ST-140 that sounds lovely through my AR-3a(4 ohm) speakers. I've encountered various comments that I can't specifically remember regarding the fact that this amp should not be used with a 4 ohm speaker; that it's dangerous in some way. Is this true? What is the story? It seems to work fine with my AR-3a's. Thanks
