16 vs. 8 Ohm Taps on SET Amplifier (Drive Units)
I just learned from Brian at Venus HiFi that Mr. Yamamoto gives demos using his 8 ohm 45 Sets with his 16 ohm speakers.
I then found on on the 6moons site that the speaker is: "the new YS-605P open-baffle model with a refurbished/modified 15" coaxial 16-ohm Altec 605A (or B) transducer"
I also found this regarding an Egdarhorn system:
"This system provided a challenge to the A-08 as it is a 16 ohm system and the A-08 is optimized for 8 ohms, but Yamamoto-san says is compatible with 4 to 16 ohms systems with only slight loss of performance."
In any case, I would still like to hear thoughts about 8 vs 16 ohm output transformers for the AER MD3.
