I have 2 pairs of MS150s and I'm considering wiring them in Parallel.  Does anyone have experience good or bad with this setup?

 

https://beocentral.com/beomaster8000

"The colossal Beovox MS 150 was the usual choice, and although it was well matched in most respects, due to its 8 ohm impedance it could not make use of the full output of the amplifier. The Beomaster 8000 was rated at 150W only into 4 ohms, the figure fell to 100W if 8 ohm loudspeakers were used."

 

thanks

The Beomaster 8000 has two sets of speaker outlets so why not just plug one pair into each set of outputs?

No need for any fancy wiring, and the 8000 will cope fine.

Thanks, I wanted to take advantage of the extra power.  Also I have a large room and I'm thinking of adding a pair of S120s
