email them direct and they shoudl be able to give you a definitive answer.
Kenwood is not known to handle 4 ohm loads. Maggies require a 4ohm capable receiver.

According to this review :

http://www.soundstage.com/entry04.htm

the maggies can eat up 200W at 4 Ohms and still be hungry for more. Even if the Kenwood can push 4 Ohms I'd bet you won't get any more than 50 watts RMS from it, that's barely enough to get the Maggies warmed up.
