Either will be fine. Technically you have 8ohm speakers however.

will it make a diff to the receiver ???
and what does this mean exactly :
High Dynamic Power, Low-Impedance Drive Capability -
It shouldn't make a difference...your receiver is going to deliver the right amount of power in to the right impedance...Originally posted by Willow

Keep in mind that the impedance rating on a speaker is just the nominal rating. Although your speakers are 'rated' at 8 ohms, they'll drop to lower ohms when driving lower frequencey sounds...they have lower resistance at lower frequencies...
As for the second part...it's just a fancy way of saying it's a capable amplifier. High dynamic power likely means that the receiver has a decent am0ount of amperage for each channel so that it can handle loud explosions and such...
Low impedance just means it can 'handle' low impedence speakers. Some amps are not designed for low impedance speakers becuase when the speaker has low resistance, it 'draws, sort of" more power from the amp and some amps can't handle the load... -
I would think it meant:and what does this mean exactly
:High Dynamic Power, Low-Impedance Drive Capability
1) power headroom for peaks
2)ability to drive 4 ohm speakers

OK .... ya beat me to it while I was on the phone but I think we said the same thing

ok thanks ill leave it at 8 ohms and I miss understood what that it said I thought it was capable of all that but not guaranteed...thanks for the input
