PA amp into one speaker query

Post by Smarty »

Hi guys. I am looking to pick up a second hand 120W PA amp to run my wife's keyboard through it. However I need a bit of advice:

Will it be okay to run the amp into one speaker rather than two? (I would use one of those 1/4" Y connections - two 1/4" from the amp, one 1/4" into the speaker)

Mnay thanks!

As long as there are not impedance issues that should be no problem. No special cables required so far as I know.

Coolio! Its 130w at 4ohm, 85w at 8ohm. I'd be looking for a 8ohm speaker as I think 4ohm speakers are bit rare nowadays.
