Need some knowledge on speaker/amp impedance
Don't worry it absolutely unlikely that 4 ohm speakers will damage a 6 ohm rated AVR.
Agree. Most AVRs these days will go to protect if you overdrive them anyway. Just keep the level down and you'd be fine.
So my question is now, should i be worried about finding a receiver that is rated to support 4 ohm speakers, or would a receiver that supports 6-16 ohm also run a 4 ohm without blowing the fuse.
To clarify one thing, i likely won't go near the limits of either the amp i have now or the amp I'm planning to buy, as my current stereo setup only consumes about 30W before it gets nearly uncomfortably loud.
If you don't need much power, most AVRs should work just fine. A 4 ohm rated one is icing on top (most of these AVRs run stiffer rails and have a higher current capacity).
