I fear I may have blown out a perfectly good Traynor cabinet with my K200-B1. I have no labels on the back of the amp and wanted to double check what load the amp is looking for, and if its the same for both speaker jacks.

The amp puts out 100 watts RMS into a 8 ohms, and will run fine into a 4 ohm load or a 16 ohm load. But into a 16 ohm load the head will only output about 60watts RMS. to test your speakers Plug a cord into your speaker cab and apply a 9 volt battery to the other end, put the small terminal of the battery to the tip of the 1/4" jack and the large terminal to the jacks sleve or case and you should hear a good pop from the speakers if they are good.
