How do I set the output impedance of the speaker terminals to match my 6ohm speaker?

I have Raidho D1 w/ a New Devialet D200
That's not possible - only the power!

As Elztalbiker said, you can't configure the output impedance. In general, audio power amplifiers are designed to have very low output impedance compared to the speakers, rather than to match them.
As above mate,

I think you might have come from a tube amp. I know some of them have different connections on the output transformer for different impedances.

In your case; Just plug, play and enjoy Smile

Just plug and play so to say.

Dont forget to get the SAM profile for the Raidhos in the configurator.
Thx all. One less thing for me to worry...
Pim thx,  I was coming from a tube... an ARC VSi60.  Prior to that a couple of Mcintosh SS amps all of which though had different terminals for 4 and 8,  sometimes 2 ohms...

I knew it!

Mildly interesting point: Devialet rates the power of its amplifiers into 6 ohm loads, so you're as well positioned as anyone in terms of power and impedance.
