Two cabs (6 Ohms) / 4 Ohm max. Imp.

PAJW · 30th July 2007, 02:54 AM

I have two cabs. 1x8 Ohm and 1x4Ohm. My Marshall is rated at 4 Ohm max. impedance. So, combined the two cabs will give me a total load of 6 Ohms when both are plugged into the amp, which should be OK. Q: Will the output of the amp be evenly distributed between the two cabinets?

Hi, no, load is 2.7 ohms, 4 ohm will draw 2 times the power of 8 ohm,
