clarification: impedance is 16ohm with 10ohm minimum
Should not be any problem. BTW, is this a tube amp without a 16ohm tap?
yes, it's a AMC CVT 2100a
There shouldn't be any problem. More ohms is more resistance. I don't know too much about tubes, but I believe they can manage to drive 16 and 10 ohms. The higher the ohm rating, the more resistance. A 16 ohm speaker will have a high resistance, so it will be harder to amplifly and make loud. Because of the high sensitivity, your speaker should play nice and loud.
Good luck,
Andy
