    Good catch frankburnz. You are right, typically Watts should double (or something a bit less probably in this case) when halving the ohms. Of course for almost 200 dollars why not just buy a basic receiver made by a reputable brand and get all the other features (a preamp, radio, perhaps even HDMI switching) as well?

    This would be great as either a sub amp in bridged mode, or as a second zone amp if your receiver doesn't have one built in. AudioSource is not a crap brand, although it is on the low end.

    Wattage won't double if the amp is current rather than voltage limited.

    However it is actually rated as 110 Watts x 2 Channels (@ 4 Ohms), (75W x 2 @ 8 Ohms / 225W x 1 bridged @ 8 Ohms)
