Typically tube amps maintain the same power output at all impedences. It doesn't double or halve as you go up and down as can happen with high current ss amps.
Tube amps and low impedances
Audio Research lists its flagship Reference 600 amp at 500 wpc at 16 ohms....Do tube amps double with each halving of impedance as the best solid state amps do?
Model Reference 600MKIII Specifications
POWER OUTPUT: 500 watts continuous at 16 ohms from 20Hz to 20kHz with less than 1% total harmonic distortion (typically less than .05% at 1 watt).
