I'm using a marshall 1960 av cab, right now, and it has two ports 8ohms each when selected in stereo, and mono one of the ports is 4ohms and the other 16ohms. I noticed that when I use the stereo 8ohm port with my mesa boogie 2:fifty, one side seems to handle all the treble, and the other bass and mids. When I got mono tho, the speakers seems perfectly balanced, and louder. Is it safe for me to go mono with the stereo power amp? I'm matching the ohms correctly I think, I have my 4ohm port on the boogie going into the 4ohm mono port on the marshall. The other thing I was thinking of doing is using the other channel of the boogie, hooking my preamp into it, and then another speaker cable that runs in the other 8ohm stereo port of the cab so I could get the full spectrum of the cab, but on the marshall it says not to use both ports at once. Please help me I'm really confused.
thx.
