There is a Epifani UL210 series I cabinet at a music store and it dosn't say what the Ohms are , and they don't know. Is there a way you can tell?

Measure resistance with a multimeter, then report back. OR

5 ohms (+) dc resistance is 8 ohms, less is 4 ohms.

I'm not worthy! The bassist from Staind gave me advice for my question!! How kool is that. OK - So I sound like a kid in a candystore.

Anyways - Great band and bassist

~ Thanks for the advice.

Opps - I misspelled the word "doesn't" in the title of the thread. I made the thread during break while working third shift - I must have been a little groggy - lol.

That cab is available in both 4 and 8 ohms IIRC so the internets may not be the best source for this one. Short of a multimeter, you could always open it up and check the speakers, they usually have some kind of marking on them, even if they are "custom" speakers for the cab maker, which would allow you calculate the total impedance.
