Can a Sonos Amp handle two 4-ohm speakers?

I have a pair of Vienna Acoustic speakers rated at 4-ohms. I'm considering switching to a Sonos Amp, but wondering if that will work given Sonos lists the amp at 8-ohms. Does this just mean it will pull more power to get the same volume or are there any issues risks here?

Yes 4-8ohms. You ca do only one pair. IF ever Neede to add more than the two you would need to get an impedance marching switch between speakers and the amp.
