Have a second look at my circuit, the 8 ohm resistor is never connected to the same amplifier which is connected to the speakers, and just like the dpdt circuit there's never more than two contacts in series with the amplifier at once. (I deem necessary to prevent ground loops). I have a slight ulterior motivation for doing it this way - from time to time I like to experiment with speakers, and I want to have it set up so the switches can also eventually be used to switch two amplifiers between two sets of speakers rather than one set of speakers and one set of dummy loads.

I also have a fairly high beam power tube powered amp, so I want to keep a low enough load reaistor so that under no conditions does the output transformer primary see excessive voltage.
