If I could ask also- how many watts do the two Fet Valve amps rate into 4 ohms ?

The input impedance of the Fet Valve amplifiers is one meg ohm (vacuum tube input).  The power will esentially double into four ohm loads up to the limits of the speaker fuses.  If you fuse much above 6 amps you risk damaging your speakers and your ears.

Sorry for being uneducated on this, but is that equal to 100Kohm?
