agedhorse Posted June 25, 2021 Share Posted June 25, 2021 Why is it that folks who clearly do not understand something feel they are qualified to accuse others of something that they do not even understand? There are SOME manufacturers who use optimistic power metrics when rating their amps, they are almost always manufacturers offering product at the lower levels of performance and budget, resulting in their need to use metrics that have larger numbers for marketing purposes (which works very well when the customer doesn't understand). There are also many manufacturers that do not feel the need to do so, they clearly state the power based on Watts (RMS) and at whatever THD the power is measured at. These manufacturers are generally marketing towards players who understand more about gear, and are looking for performance first, with cost as a secondary concern. Why is there a particular need to be rude here? Have a wicked pissah day y'all. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given the amp outputs 700w @ 2 ohms then this would equate to 175w to the 8 ohm cab and 350w to the 4 ohm cab...

Having said that, I hadn't realised we were talking about 2.67R here rather than 2R so fair enough, it is probably about right.

Bill Fitzmaurice Posted June 26, 2021 Share Posted June 26, 2021 And after all that piffle about watts not a word about what really matters, voltage swing and cone excursion. Without mention of these actually pertinent factors the OPs question could have been answered with one word: Yes. Quote Have a wicked pissah day y'all. Trying to confuse the Brits on where you're originally from, New England or Dixie? I know I've never heard anyone use both of those terms, always one or the other. It's almost as bad as when they refer to all Americans as Yankees. I'm no Yankee. I'm from Boston, I'm a Red Sox fan!

BassmanPaul Posted June 26, 2021 Share Posted June 26, 2021 Boston is a great city - I've been there a few times. You'll be pleased to know I drank Coffee there and not tea! LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Fitzmaurice Posted June 26, 2021 Share Posted June 26, 2021 We haven't drunk tea in Boston since 1773. We drink Sam Adams beer, the colder the better! 😊 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly right, colloquialisms across the pond go both ways and I didn't want to leave out either the northeast or the south (easterly), but I probably should have thrown in a "cool man" or "dude" or two for the west coast 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BassmanPaul Posted June 27, 2021 Share Posted June 27, 2021 That said we are more than a bit subdued with the discovery of hundreds of unmarked graves on the sites of old 'Residential' schools. That's dreadful all around. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Fitzmaurice Posted June 27, 2021 Share Posted June 27, 2021 (edited) Dreadful doesn't begin to describe it. Healing will only begin when those responsible who are still living are brought to justice.

Bill Fitzmaurice Posted June 27, 2021 Share Posted June 27, 2021 The Declaration of Independence was declared on July 2. At that point the Continental Congress adjourned to nearby City Tavern, where they proceeded to go on a bender. It wasn't until July 4th that they sobered up enough to approve the final draft, and that's why it says ' IN CONGRESS, July 4, 1776' at the top. After that Congress went out tavern hopping again while 200 copies were printed up for distribution. All of the members didn't actually get around to signing the original until August 2. Then they went out drinking again, mostly rum, all of it smuggled into the country. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Fitzmaurice Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 Get a different doctor. Beer isn't the culprit as much as the food that's usually consumed with it. https://www.npr.org/sections/thesalt/2014/12/31/374187472/if-youre-toasting-for-health-beer-may-be-a-good-bet https://www.brook.health/blood-sugar-and-beer/ All things in moderation. Besides, if you give up all the things that make life enjoyable you don't live any longer. It just seems that way. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
