They should match. Otherwise you could ruin your amp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Zakko Posted February 14, 2006 Members Share Posted February 14, 2006 No, that's a safe mismatch. The opposite, 16 ohm head into an 8 ohm cabinet would be dangerous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a safe match unless it isn't. Some trannies are less forgiving than others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
