Do you mean caring from the sense of overheating the amp? In which case, no worries. This head was designed to drive two 4-ohm cabs.
Or do you mean caring from the sense of whether you are driving one channel or two? In which case, I would again say no worries. From a performance/use perspective, the ShuttleMAX 12.0 driving two 4-ohm cabs should work just like a different (2-ohm stable) head driving both cabs off of one channel.
Some factors worth considering are whether or not you'd be using a single cab on occasion. If so, the SM12 is still going to be fine, as it's safe to operate one or both channels without a load. It's also worth questioning how much power you really need. If you don't need a total of 1,200 watts, then you might be better served by getting a smaller, single channel head that is stable to 2 ohms.
As mentioned above, EA and Carvin, offer lightweight heads which are stable to 2 ohms, so you have some choices.
