And watts don't matter, xmax does. And, unless you have a valve amp that requires a 4 ohm cab, there is no benefit to changing the driver, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most especially never mix horn loaded cabs with direct radiators. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
