Yay or Nay

I have recently been trying out as many amps as I can in the hopes to find one that I like. The one I have chosen was the Markbass Little Mark III 800 watt Tube (Invalid Link Removed) with the Markbass STD 104HR 410 ([This invalid link has been removed]). However I have found a store that has a considerably better price for the Markbass Classic 104 (Invalid Link Removed).
Will there be a particular difference in tone with the classic cabinet and will there be a problem with the amp being an 800 watt amp while the cabinet only being a 650 watt cab?
Thanks
 
The 104hf goes quite a bit lower with low end than the classic 104. And as long as you watch your volume and use common sense, an 800w amp will be fine. I'd go 8 ohms, though, in case you ever decide to expand.
