amenra Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 I understand putting two 8 ohm cabs together would produce 4 ohms and likewise two 4 ohms produce 2 ohms what happens if you mix a 4 ohm cab and 8 ohm cab is this going to reduce depth power or just not work correct at all cheers robbo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris_b Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 That'll be 2.67 ohms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

josh3184 Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 I had a think about this a week ago and came to the conclusion that whilst it [i]might[/i] run with an amp that'll handle down to 2ohms, the cabs being of different resistance is gonna affect how much power each cab gets in a weird way and that worries me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alien Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 The 4 Ohm cab will draw twice as much power as the 8 Ohm will. If they're rated accordingly, and your amp will genuinely handle a 2 Ohm load, then go for it. A Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
