[QUOTE="JStephens, post: 98510, member: 1846"] This is simply a matter of being designed for the job. A stereo amp like the one PearlJam is using follows the scenario. In 7.1 or 5.1 systems there are relays to prevent damage. But if you were to not hook up any speakers at all the situation will be the same. Think of a receiver as a modular amp. Some modules can be ?deviated?. It is a question of design vs. function. With AV receivers this might be slightly less dangerous due to the lower total output (RMS), but I would NEVER do it. [/QUOTE]
