Hmm, I'll have to double check what I did to my sister's stereo then.
I have a bad feeling I might have put 4 ohm speakers on a 6 ohm amp.

V=iR?  There isn't exactly any heat in that.  There is W=VA, which
relates to heat...  Is that also part of ohm's law?

But, if higher ohms on speakers is fine, then adding those resisters
would definately be pointless.
