I have a very serious issue here and am afraid to plug in either of these two poweramps I have here into higher impedance cabs as I need to make a decision on which I will keep for running the afx 3 because I need a serious poweramp rack.
And that is trying to research impedance if you can plug a lower impedance poweramp output into a higher impedance cabinet.
So far, the internet is loaded with people who are claiming to be professionals and they say that on solid state amps its safe but on tube amps you can go the opposite direction. Others say its safe on tube amps but on solid state you have to go the opposite direction.
The outputs on the back of the EV CP1800 say 4 ohm per channel with a third output that says 8 ohm bridged but thats too much power for one cab and im trying to run 2 cabinets. (One 8ohm on one channel and the other 16ohm on the other channel).
and a QSC rmx2450. The back outputs don't say anything.
not an ideal situation to not know for sure.
