Another post in my ongoing Rocker 30C speaker saga,i believe the Driver in my Rocker may be faulty,i don't have a 16ohm driver to test/replace it with,but i do have an 8ohm speaker(roland)in a seperate cab,which sounds a lot better than the V30(i believe that is maybe what the Amp should perform/sound like).
My question is,is it safe to run the 8 ohm cab from the 8 ohm tap(no other speaker connected),in a gigging situation,until i settle on a replacement 16ohm driver?
Thanks.

So long as the Roland speaker can handle the power, yes it is fine.

Re: Possible R30C speaker problem
The wattage handling should be mentioned on the speaker, or the speaker model specs on the Internet should reveal that.

Re: Possible R30C speaker problem
The speaker is the standard driver in a Cube 60 modeler,which was rated at 60 watts,but those are Roland modelling watts .at the moment it's in the Roland amp cab(with Amp removed).
I have used it with the Rocker(8 ohm)tap at Band practice & there was no apparent break up,so i think it will be ok.
In fact the Vintage 30 in the Rocker is breaking up much earlier,which is why i'm thinking it may be faulty.
I could do with finding a Rocker 30C somewhere & comparing it to mine,but i've never seen another one.
