Stupid Question about watts.

Can you run a 900 watt amp into two 8ohm cabs rated at 500 watts with no trouble?
Sorry if this has been answered 100 times already.

So long as minimum load required for the amplifier is <= 4 ohms. (Probablhy, but always good to check)

The (future) rig in question is a Shuttle 9.0 with an avatar 212+210.
The cabs are both rated at 500 watts.
