I was looking at the Engl Fireball and it has a couple different output selections. Also I was looking at the Avatar cabinets, where you can choose what ohm to run the cabinet in.

 

What I want to know is

 

What is the best ohm rating to run a single 2x12 cabinet in?

 

Are there any differences in sound/tone between different ohms?

 

Is is best to run your head with the least resistance?

 

Thanks

I don't know if any impedance is "better" than another, you should try to figure out what your rig will be and plan accordingly.

I usually like 8-ohm 2x12 speaker cabs, my reason is that the individual speakers will be 16-ohm which would work better if I ever pick up a 4x12 and want to swap speakers around. YMMV....
