Hello. I have a K200-A5 PA head I use with a matching 2x15 Jensen loaded cab or an Orange 4x12 cab from around 1971. Is it safe to use the head with a weird 15 ohm load like that? Usually these heads used 8 and 4 ohm cab combinations. The thing is though, I don't think the speakers in the Orange cabinet are original, they look like CTS speakers almost (with a metal dust cap, but i think they are Eminence from what i got from the speaker number coding which is 12EAGA8EX and 67-7104). Anyway, any thoughts or concerns on this amp/cabinet combination would be greatly appriciated. Thanks!

(P.S.- it sounds awesome if that helps haha)

You can use it just fine, but at 16 ohms the k200 will put out only about 50 watts rms. Yes that 67 code on the speakers is eminence.
