Like I stated in my message, I had 2 center channels before with no problems, and that the information at the time was based off of information (from AVS) from years ago. I admitted that it was somewhat of a speculation at the time and that others would know better.

Rick, you calculated correctly(1/8+1/6=1/x, x= 3.43 ohms), but these things in reality don't have to be cut that fine and it's quite likely that what you're considering would work well.

I agree with JohnK. Try it with your Rotel. It will likely be fine, because the combined impedance curve won't remail at 3.4 ohms across the entire frequency range. Impedance curves are rarely a straight line. Impedance rises and falls with frequency.
You can't hurt your Rotel. It will either accept the load or, worst case, shut down temporarily. I doubt the latter would occur.
