Mr. Foxen Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 Can anything be added in teh impedance section about how that relates to valve amps with output transformers? There is stuff about peaky impedance loads being hard on them, but good information is not so easy to come by. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LukeFRC Posted October 12, 2013 Share Posted October 12, 2013 wow. A thought did strike me though.... If I ever played a gig at the top of a high mountain my drivers would be likely to break (or whatever fancy word alex uses) at lower volume than if i played by the dead sea...

alexclaber Posted October 12, 2013 Share Posted October 12, 2013 On the top of Everest the cab would be quieter and the bass response thinner. The treble extension from the woofers would be increased too. The thermal power handling would be about 25% greater. However, your bass playing would suffer a lot more than the cab at that altitude!
