Rookie Question, maybe


I have finally brought home the Primaluna Prologue and LOVE it.  Here is my question.  I have a set of Martin Logan Bookshelf speakers that I am using temporarily until the room that the amp and speakers are going in is finiahed.  The speakers are rated at 4ohms but compatible with 4,6, and 8ohm amps.  The Primaluna have speaker hook ups for both 4 and 8 ohm speakers.  How should I hook up the speakers to get the best sound but not overload the amp, or does it really matter?  I listen, for the time being, at low to medium volume.

Cheers

It’s my understanding that the 4ohm and 8ohm Connections on the tube amp will allow safe power supply voltage for speaker load.  I think it’s based on different taps for the output transformer.  So, if you have 4ohm speak res, connect them to the 4ohm binding post on the amp.
