Hi,
can the OPTīs from a tube amp be damaged if:
I use the 16 ohms tap and connect 4 ohm speakers?
The tubes could be damaged, or at least one can expect a limited life
span.
What's the mechanism for this? I started audio in the tube era, ca 1963,
and no one I know worried about this. However, tubes were cheap.
