I'm a long-time happy owner of Mark III and Mark IV combos, and I'm looking into buying a THD Hot Plate power attenuator. These come in various impedances, including 2, 4, 8, and 16 ohms. I know that mixing up amp/speaker impedances can have nice results (sonically, although with some accelerated tube degradation), but I wanted to see if anyone here had had any experience with this kind of thing.
The standard ('correct') choice for these amps is probably the 8 ohm version for mono. Are there any reasons why I should or shouldn't consider any of the other models?
