Eich T-1000 Wattage Questions

[JLuisBass]

Hello my fellow bassists!

I was wondering how many watts I would get if I run only one 8 ohms cab on channel A or B?

I've been looking around the web but the only 8 ohms wattage listed is for running the amp in bridge (700 watts).

I'm interested in running the amp in parallel, having the flexibility to use multiple rigs. Let's say a mini with only one cab using one channel, a medium with two cabs using both channels, and a large with three or four cabs using both channels as well, all cabs being 8 ohms in this scenario.

The manual says each channel delivers 500 watts @ 2 ohms, and 350 watts @ 4 ohms. According to my calculations, each channel should deliver 250 watts @ 8 ohms, does anyone know if that's correct?

Thanks in advance!

According to my calculations, each channel should deliver 250 watts @ 8 ohms,

What calculations are those? I'd guess that the 8 ohm output power of one channel is likely to be half the 4-ohm power, 175 watts. Note that the difference between 250 and 175 watts is relatively small, only about 2.5 dB. Does the manufacturer spec the bridged output power into a 16-ohm load? If so, the single-channel output power at 8 ohms will be half of that as well.
