H Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 As long as you observe the impedance of the cab as compared with the amp's output. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest HRB853370 Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 thinking about diving the cab with the little Bugger, Will? Yer reading my mind (again) Gio. But driving not diving. Whats the equation again? The speaker cabs impedance must be lower or higher than my amp output impedance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The speaker cabs impedance must be lower or higher than my amp output impedance? The cab impedance should be equal to or higher than the amps output impedance.

The speaker cabs impedance must be lower or higher than my amp output impedance? let me know how it is... the video seems pretty promising Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bolero Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 yep agree it can sound fantastic...especially the old small tube amps. a cranked deluxe into a 4x12 sounds killer!! didn't big bob build a small amp head he brought to PSP one year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
