I would like to thank many of you for your input. I switched from the 8ohm posts to the 4ohm posts for a few days and listened to the music. I did have to turn up the volume a little to get the same level of sound. The Bass was tighter, the midrange lost some bloom, and the highs seemed a little rolled off. there was'nt any BIG changes though. I was surprised, but there seemed to be a little more detail in the music. I like my tube sound though,the mid bloom and high air you know, so I've switched it back to the 8ohm posts. Still listening for a better sound...
8 ohm speaker hooked up to 4 ohm post ?
I read that a gentleman switched his speaker wires from the 8ohm speaker post on his Amp to the 4ohm post, and enjoyed a healthy change in the dynamics of his music. I don't know what ohms his speakers run on, but I have an 8ohm pair of Meadowlark Shearwaters. I would like to try this, but am afraid it could harm the speakers and/or Amp. Can someone out there tell me [for sure] what will happen?
