TC Electronic Rh450 Advice needed

Sign in to disble this ad
Hi guys
I'm looking for some advice as I am considering buying the RH450 head and I'm wondering if my old speakers will be ok with it. I have 2 trace elliot cabs, 2103h and 1153t I belive each cab is rated at 200w 8ohms.

Anyways thats about the size of it and I look forward to any replies

Regards

Steve

You'll be fine. The max wattage output of the RH 450 into 4ohms is 236w.

It wasn't interesting the previous 8000 times, so why do you think it will be so this time

Over and out

Please don't -- it's all been said at least 50 times. BurningSkies isn't baiting anyone, he's just stating a fact about the amp.

No bait. Only truth. Hard to debate that.

I know...

I just like the technical banter from time to time about perhaps the greatest step forward in bass amplification ever, The RH450.
