So, you can see I'm running a Laney AOR through an Ampeg 8x10, but I'm suddenly worried I'm going to be underpowering the cab.
There aren't an awful lot of threads about this on the internet, and the majority are on threads 5-8 years old by blues lawyers who think anything above 18 watts is cataclysmic and unnecessary - oh how they'd shit themselves in our little corner. Cue reference to Kyuss and end thread.
NOW, don't get me wrong, the fucker is loud still but I'm fairly sure it isn't as loud as my 4x12 even putting the 100 watts into the 4x10 solely (though my 4x12 has louder, more sensitive speakers) and the tone is actually very nice - not boomy or thumpy or flabby as I was worried it might be. I'm aware of a lower mid-range, but the AOR is very mids heavy anyway, so it's not a massive issue. They seem to pair up quite nicely, minus the fact that I'm paranoid about not using it to it's full potential here, and that the comparatively low watts in a guitar amp compared to the bass amp aren't getting the speakers moving.
SO; should I get rid and get something like an SC200, or perhaps a second 100w amp so each head powers a 4x10 section? Or should I grin and bear it, sell it on and waste more cash trying to find an empty cab and the same speakers (which are now more expensive) as in my 4x12?
I just want to get your opinions on it guys, I trust you for the doomz!
