I have read all kinds of things on this topic and I would like to clear it out once and for all, and with You people.
I am soon to get a headpeace Genz Benz 750 GBE. It gives 750 Watt @ 2Ohm, 625 W @ 4Ohm and 400 W @ 8 Ohm. Currently I am playing on Peavey Firebass 700 (which gives 700W @ 2Ohm) through two Marshall cabs (MBC 410 and MBC 115) each 4ohm which means two ohms overall.
I plan on changing the two cabs sometime in the future with somethig better. Initialy I though with going again with 2 cabs each with 2 ohm, so that the amp can give it' full power. I did a bit of research, and apart of finding the affirmation to my idea, a lot of peapole are saying that it practicaly makes no difference if one runs hier at 2 or at 4 ohm. Allegedly is the difference in 125W here minor and in turns of loudness, nonexistent. Furthermore, some say that in these cases it would be better to run at 4 ohm because the amp does not run at ist full strain and it does not get so hot which is kind of good for the amp.
I thought I had it all figured out but not I don't have a clue.
So what does your expretise say?
