Hey guys.
I've just bought a new old Mesa 4x12. Heard it demoed before sale and it sounds great, but I'm struggling with something. Opened the back and it has 4 16 ohm speakers wired together in two parallel pairs. The jacks on the back offer two sockets at 4 ohms for stereo or one at 8 ohms for mono, but surely with 16 ohm speakers I should be setting the amp to 16 ohm for mono and 8 ohm for stereo? Hope you get what I'm saying.
