Ok yes then definitely
Put them both on a 4ohm tap because product over sum formula shows
8x8 divided by 8+8= 4ohms

Running all the loudspeakers shows
4x6 divided by 4+6= 2.4 ohms

This is kind of a low impedance on the amp no doubt

I would think the tube amp can handle this load

A cheap transistor amp will pretty much fry the output transistors with a 2.7ohm load

2.7ohms is running the mains/sub and second set of loudspeakers together

It is entirely possible they dont recomend runnint that amp below 4ohms

So then dont run all the loudspeakers when listening
