These present the higher impedance load that OTL's crave without the dips characteristic of dynamic speakers with fancy crossover mechanisms. For 4 ohm or other dynamic speakers with impedance fluctuations below 6'ish ohms, the use of an autotransformer (Paul Speltz Zero, Atmasphere's own or equal)is highly recommended - no, its mandatory!

That said, I have NYAL OTL-4 here, and it loves 8 ohm speakers, impedances that drops below 6 are will tend to constrict the amplifiers power. Jeff
