RE: I will be running mine into a 4,200 Ohm load.

Yeah, if you're down around 45ma at 250 volts it calls for about 3.5k.

4.2k will give a little less max power but the power that it will have will be clean power.

I used to run my 300b (375v, 64ma.) into 6k. Not much power but really clean. Calls for about 4200 ohms.

Now I run at 4k (same voltage and current). More power and not as clean but still sounds good.

One can use whatever OP they want....It's just nice understanding what one is doing and what it does to the HD.

Dennis running at 46ma 250 into 2.5k is not what I would call a "good OP".

Especially when he says his amps are "the best ever......".......but I really don't what to get back into all that. :-(
