Atma-sphere M60 II.3-Any good for 4 ohm speaker?


Guys, I like the idea of trying OTL, but, in looking at the mfg. web page, I see the power rating going down to 40 watts for 4 ohm load, and going up to 80 watts for 16 ohm load. I am receiving my speakers next week, and they are 95DB with a 3.8-4 ohm load(Reimer Tetons)What do you think of these amps with a 4 ohm speaker. Also, why does the power go down, not up?

Thanks in advance

Does anyone have any experience with MA-1 11.3 and Dunlavy SC-4a speakers? They are also 4 ohms, 91db and pretty stable.

Thanks Rushton. The impedance of the Dunlays is pretty flat. It ranges from 3 ohms to 7.5 ohms max. Wouldn't a zero autoformer put a transformer in the circuit of the OTL design?
