The way I understand it is given the same sensitivity the amp would have to double down into 4 ohms for the 4 ohm speaker to play as loud as the 8 ohm speaker. The MA6500 almost gets there so it would be very close. I doubt if anyone would even notice.
4 ohm load vs 8 ohm load? What is prefered?
Example; Mcintosh MA6500 integrated amp will output 120 wpc
when using 8ohm speakers. But if I use a 4ohm speaker system it will output 200wpc.
What would the difference be assuming both speaker systems are equal in audio fidelity?
Thanks in advance for any insight.
