I used the 8 ohm tap. You're question is one I have also because I had a Music Reference RM-10 of which the designer advised using the 4 ohm tap with 8 ohm speakers. He calls this "light loading"; it reduces the output from 35 to 27 watts but increases dampoing by a facto rof 10 and reduces distortion significanlty. There was an audible difference.
I decided to wait until I had the amps completely under control. There is still a buzz in the right one and you'll recall I had the wrong size bases. The bases I made myself are curing and the right channel amp is on the workbench.
I'm already wondering about tube-rolling and Auricaps. It never stops.
