4 ohm or 8 ohm tap on old tube amps?


Would one of these provide better sound than the other? I have vintage Marantz and McIntosh but is the answer pretty much true for any tube amp?

Driving ProAc 8 ohm 86db One SC monitors.

Thanks much,
Jim

I agree with Mechans here...Using a 4 ohm tap won't hurt anything with 8 ohm speakers...I have usually found 8 ohm taps work best, even with 4 ohm speakers...but your milage will very much vary on this...just try it..
