Question concerning my Marshall DSL100H + Cab, and Orange CR120H
Posted: Fri Apr 05, 2019 2:06 pm
Hey guys I was wondering if you could help me out. So currently I own a Marshall DSL100H (100 watt) head (tube amp) along with a Marshall MX412A 4x12" cab (16 Ohms). Ive had this set up for almost a year now and it has given me a pretty great tone. But I've already had to replace a few of the default tubes. And this has made me decide that I would like to go back to using solid state amplifiers. Don't get me wrong, I love the tone that I can achieve out of my DSL100H , but I just don't think it's worth the maintenance that tube amps require. I've done some research to find the best possible solid state head I could find and I found this.

After watching a few videos and reading the reviews this head seems to be perfect for me. So this brings me to my actual question. If I were to purchase this orange head, would I be able to connect it through my Marshall MX412A speaker cab? And even if I could, would it simply be a better choice just to get an orange speaker cab to go along with my orange head anyways?
I would like to know the best thing to do because I plan to sell my Marshall DSL100H head and I want to know if I should just try to sell the Marshall cab along with it as a bundle.
Also I'm a bit of a noob when it comes to Ohms. And the orange head is 2x16 ohms which I believe this means it has two ports on the back for 16 Ohms. But why does it need two ports? When hooking this head up do you need to use both or just one?
I would really appreciate your feedback!
Thanks
