Since most tubed SET amps are only good for 4/8 ohm's load, and Maggies ribbon is only 2-3 ohms, they cannot drive them very well. Since the ribbon is mostly (or fully?) resistive, would it be possible to just add a 1-2 ohm resistor in series with the ribbon, and run it with SET's 4ohm output? Or would it need some kind of a transformer?
If the resistor would work, could it have any negative effect on the sound quality?
