4 ohm load into a 16 ohm speaker

<< < (3/3)

rnolan:
Hey Dante, as MJMP says you'll get around 25% of the power into 16 ohms.  However, 16 ohm speakers are typically  more sensitive, responsive and efficient than the lower impedance varieties which will off set this a bit.

Dante:
Kim: I've read really great things about them. I may pull the trigger on a new 8 ohm version (they only come in 8 and 16)

Richard: Since I'd be cutting my ohm load in half, I guess I'd get a bit of that sensitivity with the 8 ohm as well (?)

As loud as this little combo is, I think it'd be okay for mic'ing, even at half power. I'm not totally against the sound I'm getting, I haven't had enough time to really play around with it. But, I do have a bias for the speaker that's in it, I'm not a fan.
