The 4 ohm tap has a lower impedance than the 8 ohm tap...

.....so a greater damping factor. This will control the woofer differently than the 8 ohm tap and will sound different in the bass. Additionally, as mentioned, power deliver is usually greatest into a matched load, so you will sacrifice a bit of power, and there will be no danger to the amp, or speakers.

As to getting the results that you expect, that's between you, and Dionne Warwick. I'm not a member of the club.
