___---___ Posted March 9, 2011 Posted March 9, 2011 On a whim (how very typical of me) I have just purchased a series 1 UL110. It is rated at 8ohms. The print on the back of my UL502 says that the load must be a minimum of 4ohms. Seeing as the speaker is small, and the amp relatively powerful, will I be able to use this set up? And yes, I plan to use a solitary UL110. Thanks in advance! Quote
alexclaber Posted March 9, 2011 Posted March 9, 2011 Minimum load means your amp isn't rated to drive a sub 4 ohms nominal load, so the 8 ohm load of the UL110 will be fine. The only problem you're likely to run into is loudness especially in the lows - if you have to keep up with a drummer expect to hear distortion if things are getting loud. This distortion serves as a warning that if you carry on like this you'll blow the speaker. Quote
___---___ Posted March 9, 2011 Author Posted March 9, 2011 Ok, cool. Surely it won't distort at low levels? I bought such a small cabinet solely for bedroom use you see. Quote
51m0n Posted March 9, 2011 Posted March 9, 2011 SHould be fine for bedroom use. Just not bedroom use up aginast a drummer on full chat ) Quote
