iowa Posted February 14, 2008 Share Posted February 14, 2008 I have a VJ head (4,8 and 16 ohm jacks) and the matching 16 ohm cab. I can pick up an older Weber Micro Mass pretty inexpensively. Problem is, it is an 8 ohm attenuator. Can I use it without damaging the amp or speaker? I thought I heard somewhere that amps can tolerate a 2:1 impedance mismatch.
