mace said:Hi, I've got a 4 Ohm Marshall and 8 Ohm Mesa cab. The Mesa tech told me to now use these two with my amp since it drive the total impedance to low.
However, he did say that rewiring the 4 Ohm cab to a 16 Ohm cab would be an option. Then this would work:
16 Ohm cab into 8 Ohm jack
8 Ohm cab into 4 Ohm jack
The tech did not specify if this was a "mismatch" or not but I'm thinking it is not a mismatch since each each cab has a jack for exactly half it's impedance, as it should be when connecting two cabs.
I haven't tried this yet but I'm wondering if one cab will be louder than the other because each has a different impedance.
Probably best to just stick with the same impedance cabs but this Marshall 2x12 was sure cheap.
