I would have no idea. You had better follow the rule of carpentry. Measure twice and cut one. So in other words, better check this out thoroughly before trying to connect so that you don’t eff up your headphones and amp.

Try it with the lowest first e.g. 2ohms right + & right - & 2ohms left + & left -.
Then move up to 4ohms right + & right - & 4ohms left + & left -
etc...
See if that improves the sound or degrades it.

It's 100% possible to sound the same because it doesn't do anything. Same as if I sit a hamster on my DAC - it sounds the same because it has no impact whatsoever - just like an audiophile network switch.
Keep in mind that a standard cat6 network runs at 1 gigabit. That's pumping 1's and 0's all over the place a billion times a second without making any mistakes. And that's a standard $30 network switch doing that with no problems at all. Sure, the $640 audiophile one can do it as well, but who cares.
Thank you all for the suggestion, I just afraid to damage the amp or the abyss .
Maybe I need to save money to buy the amp , woo wa 5 /woo wa 22 /Manley absolute headphone amp.
I have the WA5le and it pairs nicely. If you are interested in solid state then the HeadAmp GXSmk2 is a very fast amp that compliments the Abyss very well. Or the GSX mini is similar but a little warmer sounding. Also about $1200 cheaper. I believe it starts at $1800.
I've been listening to the SC cables like all day yesterday and today. They are amazing and worth the money to me. My initial impressions still stand. Much better separation, more treble sparkle, fuller bass, a bit more resolution, slightly larger soundstage. I feel like the bass drum decay is more realistic (faster), but I need to do some more testing with some death or grind

Another tube amp to consider is the Cayin HA-300. I found it to sound better the WA5. Another member has both the TC and that amp and says it pairs nicely. Maybe he will chime in.
