I am completely new to tubes and Im getting set to start my SEX kit.  (tee hee hee)

I mainly want to see how my new Zu Audio Omens work with this kit - so Im assuming I should set it up for 8Ω output impedance since the Zu's are rated at around 12 Ω. There isnt some further tweak or alteration to make the output impedance 12Ω, is there?

I may use it for headphones rarely- but its primary job will be to drive the speakers.

Just looking for confirmation that I should just go ahead and set it up for 8Ω.

Thanks in advance

Greg

Yes, 8 ohms will be the best setting for a 12 ohm speaker.
