Any experience using 8 ohm taps for 16 ohm speakers?

sorry, I meant remote balance, (not volume volume) may be the factor making having 16 ohm taps difficult to find.

I started a separate thread about that, this is about who experience what when they tried16 ohm speakers on 8 ohm taps.

Anyone have 16 ohm speakers? Whatcha got?

Mine are Electrovoice drivers from 1956. I moved them from a Fisher President II console to new Enclosures I had built. 

15" woofer, 37 lps, monster magnet, 15W (brother of 15B used in the big Klipshhorn).  Re-coned the woofers twice over the years. Luckily cone with cloth surround is still available.

Electrovoice Horn Midrange and Horn Tweeter, Electrovoice Crossover, Presence and Brilliance controls.

These are what I might try on 8 ohm taps. Having Presence and Brilliance controls designed for the crossover/drivers may help that be successful.

I guess it was 1958.

I inherited it from my uncle. I have all the components, use the console for firewood. Originally the woofers shot out the bottom, unit was on 8" bronze legs. TT and tape deck in the 2 drawers.
