Is bad to under power a cab.

See,...entertainment.

I do believe STICKIES are an easy, quick way to find answers, for the benefit of the person asking the question, not as a benefit for those who don't want their time wasted answering it.

Because after all, ONE CAN CHOOSE TO IGNORE THE THREAD!

This topic pops up so often, I'm starting to worry about practicing at lower volume levels. When will it end? And, the previous statement was sprinkled with sarcasm, before you jump.

YOU CANNOT UNDERPOWER A CAB....However, it may sound like crap due to pushing the amp to it's limit

 

[Gearhead43]

I always underpower my cabs, every time I play.

I'll resuscitate their cones.

Last time I underpowered my cabs I thank Jaweh that I read these forums in time to prevent damage! Now I never turn off my amp or put it in Standby! But it gets tricky transporting my gear to gigs that are far away, where the cabs are underpowered for sometimes a couple of hours of drive time.

I always expect to find they aren't working when I set them up onstage.

You too, huh.

 

[Gearhead43]

Huhuh......he said "cones".

Now THOSE are some seriously underpowered cabs

I've found that you can take the grill off and do like a CPR move to keep the cones moving and alive.

I've bought an old ambulance and hired off duty nurses to pump on the cones during the trip to and from the gig.

It's worth it

I'd pay to see that.

Hi.

IBT/GBJ.

I think it's time for the mods to institute word filtering, and put 'underpowering' at the top of the list.

Could they also include "Tube vs. SS" on the list if it's possible, please.

Naah, that's nothing.

That's more like it
