Home Theatre setup different Ohms

description: Hi all. I'm new to the audiophile world and have the opportunity to purchase an amazing set of speakers and center channel. The odd thing(or maybe not) is that the left and right as well as rear channels are all rated at 8ohms nominal while the centre channel is rated at 4ohms. Wondering what, if any problems I may run into, or should I avoid this situation altogether. Thanks. edge
