hello, just won this beast on ebay and i was wondering what ohms it supports, i haven't received it yet, but reading the back through pictures didn't notice any info on the topic.

i have one 4/12 8ohm cab, will this work or am i going to blow something?

Thank you in advance

this is the model that doesn't have the 7 band graphic EQ

Hi.
That head will out put 125 watts RMS into a 4 ohm load, and all will be fine into your 8 ohm cabinet where it will output 75 watts RMS.
Do not run the amp at less than a 4 ohm load!

thank you! i got it sooner then i thought i would and ran it through the cabinet and it's all good. thank you for the info cause 1. it doesn't have anything written on the back in terms of ohms, and 2. i definitely plan to get more cabinets for this and will shoot for a 4ohm!
