I had an Outlaw 1050 and build my own speakers and have for years.

The center channel speaker I was using ran a very efficient crossover design and scan-speak/vifa drivers which ran idiol at 3.8 ohms.

My Class A Bedini can drive them no problems, but it was on the edge for loud midrange scenes with the 1050 where the ohms dropped slightly (about 3ohms/2400hz)

Even though the 1050 was a great receiver for the coin, it was a bit much for it and once in about 20 movies it would give the relay a hard on..
