Need help with receivers and speakers

202.73.173.170

Okay I am planning to buy a new AV receiver and some speakers for my DVD player only I dont quite understand yet how the reciever's watts and impedence affect my choice of speakers.

Lets say I saw a receiver with 100 watts per channel (x5 it think) with 8-16 ohms and I plan to use some old speakers for the mean time before I buy new ones.

What would happen if I plug in a couple of 120 watt speakers at 8 ohms?

Or how about some old speakers at 100 watts each at 4 ohms?
