power rating question on receiver

Video Asylum

TVs, VCRs, DVD players, Home Theater systems and more.

132.233.247.4

I noticed on the Sony DA777ES receiver that the power rating into 8ohms (120w) was more than the power rating into 4ohms (100w). On most other amps, it seems to be the other way round. Why is it so?
Thanks,
