You might want to make sure it's an 8 ohm. That might be why the price was so low.

As opposed to a 4 ohm? And why would that make it cost less? Not being sarcastic, just curious as to what you meant by that.

I just picked up a 102HF to push with my 102P.

Strangely enough, the 102HF is a larger cabinet than the 102P. Should be sweet sounding.

My guess would be good old supply and demand. Not too many people out there running 2 ohms and some may feel that cab isn't enough at 4 ohms. Just a guess though.

I'm guessing that he's thinking a 4 ohm would be a slower mover, so the price could be reduced.

Most amps are limited to a 4 Ohm minimum load, so an 8 Ohm extension cab would seem to be more in demand (IMHO). I don't know whether that would enter into the pricing scheme at GC though.

edit; he..he..he.....Joe Victim, great minds think alike!

+1 Joevictim & lbwdog.

4 ohm would definitely be an oddball for sure.
