Mismatched Speaker Impedance Tube Amp at Timothy Venning blog

Mismatched Speaker Impedance Tube Amp. Can you mismatch the impedance of your load box and your amplifier? What happens if there is a mismatch? If the amps has a very low source impedance is is not effected by the load but amps, tube, with compromised output transformers. The reason is called reflected impedance and it's bad news. If you want optimum output, then use a 4ω speaker load. If the speaker cabinet impedance load is higher than the amplifier rating, e.g., an eight. A good guide is to match the total impedance of your speaker cabinets to that of the minimum rating of the amplifier. You should be able to safely use a 8ω cabinet, but you tube. If you were to hook an 8 ohm speaker up to a champ the 6v6 would see 10000 ohms. Which will reduce volume and headroom. It would work, but the high impedance would. What to do, what not to dom and how it might affect your tone. Actually a greater load is bad for a tube amp. As in 100 watts, 8 ohm amp to a 16 ohm speaker will drop the amps power to 50 watts? So, if you mismatch the speaker load, you handicap your amps output.
