Here's a link to the Lundahl datasheets:
Power transformer: https://www.lundahltransformers.com/wp-content/uploads/datasheets/2758.pdf
Power supply choke: https://www.lundahltransformers.com/wp-content/uploads/datasheets/2742.pdf
Anode chokes: http://www.lundahl.se/wp-content/uploads/datasheets/1667_68.pdf
Output transformers: https://www.lundahltransformers.com/wp-content/uploads/datasheets/2765.pdf
This results in an output impedance of 5 Ohms on the low impedance connection A, and 17 Ohms on the high impedance connection B.
With Aegis it's possible to switch between this low and high output impedance settings via a switch on the back.
And that's somewhat of an achievement given the complexity of the wiring scheme on a Lundahl output transformer.
See this thread to learn about all about impedance matching.
Hope this helps!

The output transformer is the LL2765. Wired for suggested connection A or B in the datasheet.I know we discussed impedances; however, I’m still struggling understanding this…
what output transformer are you using?
what are the taps on them?
then, what is the understanding on impedance matching? Is it all about having enough wattage, for a given headphone impedance? Also, is it about the the damping needed for the headphones? How do you know what the damping factor is?
