When did Marshall start including 4 ohm taps on their output transformers? The earliest JTM45s had 8 and 16 ohm and 100 volt taps.
Marshall used to have 4 output/speaker jacks in the back of the Super Lead 100w amps in the later 60's .. I never tried to power 4 16ohm cabs with one head, but they added this feature so you could and as a result the 4ohm tap needed to use 4 4x12 16ohm cabs.
Does Running 16 ohms on the amp into an 8 ohm cab cause any amp damage? How about 8 ohms on the amp into a 16ohm cab?
What are the risks? How long does it take to cause damage if so?
Thanx..
