ive just got a marshall head,but its giving me headache....on the back there is standard 2 outputs!! but theres a switch for 8Ohm and 16(4) Ohm i t ake it the 16(4) is to plug a 4x cab in,so i gather i cant use a single 4Ohm cab? also if use 2 cabs how would this break down between the 2 inputs?...im all ohms lawed out!!!

It's 8 or 16 Ohm only:

[i]Impedance Selector Switch: Two-way switch for matching the amplifier to speaker impedance. Amp heads feature 8 or 16 Ohm operation. Combo versions feature 4 or 8 Ohm options.[/i]

Guessing they used the same backplate on the combos as the heads.

So nope you can't use a 4Ohm cab with this one.

If you wanted to use 2 cabs they would have to be 16Ohms each, and you would set the switch to 8Ohms.
