    Is it better to overpower at the same ohms or different?

    Ah ok thanks for all the advice. I lurk here a lot and though I've been a member for the past 2 years I rarely post. Most questions I would ask have already been asked and answered by someone else. This is one I couldn't find an answer to. I've read up on how amps work and while I've gained a...

    Is it better to overpower at the same ohms or different?

    Thanks for the input Sacto. I didn't know how much of a difference it would make being with the head being 4 ohms but thought if I was gonna overpower it it's better to overpower by 50 (virtually nil) watts versus 200. The other side of the coin being the ohms not matching up. I've read in the...

    Well the plan is to add another 112 a little later. The cab itself has a switch allowing you to select 4 or 8 ohms

    Someone help me please!

    I've played on that amp and am planning on buying one myself. I don't think you can do better for the money personally. Major drawback to it is you can't add an extension cab. The overdrive is cold at best but fun to play around with. It doesn't color the sound of your bass much which I like...

    What bassist inspired you to play bass?

    Tim Commerford, Flea, Les Claypool, Geezer Butler, Jason Newstead, & Cliff Burton got me started. Still influenced by all of them but have been influenced by countless others as well.
