Actually, this makes perfect sense. The internal speakers in the B-450 combo are wired @ 4ohms which means the amp is putting out 450watts. When you add an ADDITIONAL 4ohm load that drops the "ohmage" to 2. Therefore putting out the 600watts.

Where in FL?
Anywhere near Gainesville? I'll probably be selling my B200 combo soon (interested?)![]()

I'm in St. Pete...
It's going to be at least a few months before I can afford the B200, so don't wait for me. That said, let me how much you are asking...
Thanks
p.s. can anybody inform me what the GND switch next to the power switch does?
Just to confirm, the 130 series (134, 135, 136, 137) are all based on the 140/150 series amps which in turn were based on the 150/150B line from the previous generation.Jthe 136 ( which appears to be actually a 140 head) is really cool cause the amp and cab can used completely separate so the 220 head can be used with the 15" cab and goes really good with it.
