4 or 8 ohm connection for a 6 ohm speaker?


I have a pair of Thiel CS2’s that have a nominal impedance of 6 ohms. My mono blocks have output impedance connections for 4, 8 or 16 ohm speakers. Is it best to connect the speakers to the 4 ohm or 8 ohm connections? 
Thanks for your thoughts.

Thank you Timo62 for the reply. I have them on the 8 ohm tap at present and will try the 4 ohm tap next. 
Hi Bill, I would suggest the 4 ohm. Please report back your findings the differences.
It makes sense to try the lower tap first, but there definitely have been cases of particular combinations of amp and speaker where the tap a little over the nominal impedance sounds better.  Of course, if you ever look at some measurements, nominal impedance can be a pretty fuzzy term.
Roger Modjeski ( music reference ) advocates light loading but also listening. Clipping is bad, so listen for that also. I light load my Vandersteen TreoCT ( an engineered easy load at 6 ohm nominal ) with the 2 ohm tap on my RM-9. Amp stays in class A longer and at the relatively low volume I listen at - sounds better.
have fun - enjoy those great speakers! And the music !
As most have said already, try the lower option first. I have a pair of speakers that average around 12 ohms during play. I tried the 8 ohm posts first and was disappointed. I the 4 ohm post and the speakers sounded much better.
