What is the result of higher impedance in SET?

What is the sonic result if the primary impedance of the output transformer is higher than mornally used in major SET design?
Normally: 300B 2.5K
2A3 3.0K
245 5.0K
I have a transformer with 8.6K as primary and 8 as secondary; I want to use it with one of the above tubes.
Thank you for any help.

Gs, Is it possible to shunt the transformer's impedance with resistor?
What will be the result?

The second option is that Mercury Magnetics produce transformers for any Zp and Zs specified.

Direct with feedback?
