Depends on the amp, but I would guess that a vast majority of folks who run flea power amps run them with speakers less than 12 ohms (only because 8 ohm are most common). I run my 3 watt 2A3 amp with several pairs of 8 ohm speakers and they work great together. My amp has 8 ohm taps.
How important is 10 or 12 ohms to flea powered amp
I have been wanting to try flea powered amps in the 2- 3 watt catagory . I am aware that efficiency is needed ie. high sensitivity with a flat impiedance curve . But I would like to know how important a higher resistance is to the operation of these amps . Most of the affordable speakers , that I am aware of , do contain a sensitivity in the high 90's with a fairly flat impiedance curve but they all seem to be 8 ohm speakers . Will these be sufficient for my needs or should I be looking for 10 -12 ohm speakers ?
Thank You.
