Quilter V803 - Speaker Question

[Freddi375]

Hello guys 

 

Does anyone know if I can run an 8ohm and a 4ohm (2 seperate cabs) together and safely using the Quilter V803?

 

...and if I do this, do i need to ensure something is changed on the amp for this to work, or will it do it automatically, ie do i leave the watts tuner at 800?

 

Thanks in advance!

The specs say 8 or 4ohm - I'd assume therefore it's minimum 4ohm. Using an 8ohm and a 4ohm cab at the same time would potentially take you below that to 2.67ohm, which I suspect it won't like.

There's an Aguilar AG700 in the Classifieds which will run at 2.67 ohms. Great sounding amp.

There's only one case where that makes sense, that's when you have a 2x that's 8 ohms and a 4x that's 4 ohms, with all six drivers being identical, and the amp is rated for 2 ohm operation. Otherwise go with the one cab that gives the better results.
