This news spooked me as it is night and day when I switch from the 8 ohm tap to the 4 ohm tap.

So I reached out to Ron C from McIntosh.

Ron told me it was fine to use the 8 ohm tap with my Cremonas.

Perhaps it’s different for my MAC6700, with 200wpc, but who knows.

I asked Ron a follow-up question and clarified that my amp doesn’t even get the slightest bit warm while using the 8 ohm tap.

Ron said if it was a mismatch, the amp would run hot.

Definitely a different response, but I’ll be happy to keep my Cremonas on the 8 ohm tap!!!
The message I received from Chuck H was not 10 minutes after Ron C had replied that the 8 ohm tap should be fine to use. I tend to agree with CH that if the majority of the speakers impedence is well below 8 ohms on the freq range then 4 ohms it will be for me and my Auditor Ms. With that said, I am always willing to try......just to hear/see.
