Ohms
Moderator: bclaire
don't know anything about the cabinet.
If you plug into the 8 ohm input of the cab do you get 2 speakers or all 4? my guess is that 8 ohms gives you two and 4 ohms gives you all 4 speakers. in this case 4ohms with all 4 speakers is your best choice. just a guess though. I would try to find out through the dealer you bought it from or Marshall.

You may be wrong here on the Marshall. It´s 4 or 16 ohms mono and 2x8 ohms in stereo. 4 ohms is said to get more punch but it´s up to taste here. Is the amp switchable 4-8-16? It´s either 4 or 16 to go with!

Whenever possible, you should always use a 16 ohm cabinet. The amp transformer is wired for 16 ohm using the entire transformer, then there are taps on the transformer using part of the tranny for 8 ohm and even less for 4 ohm. So, to use the entire winding of the transformer and the best possible tone, a 16 ohm cab is best. Billy
