4 ohms to 8 ohm speakers?

Running 4 ohm taps generally tightens bass performance, but can lead to a drier sound. Only by listening to both connections will you be able to determine which is preferable to you.

Also, the 8 ohm speakers likely have impedance dips well below 8 ohms, perhaps even below 4 ohms. So, using 4 ohm taps might actually be more appropriate than using 8 ohm taps.

Yes sometimes a speakers ratings is a average and could very possibly have dips very well below its 8 ohn rating use the ear to be the judge.

Groundhog,

See this recent thread on the same topic. Bottom line is try it and use which ever sounds best. It will not hurt your amp or speakers.
