I have a guy wanting to build me a 4x8" cab for my 5F1.

1. He wants to put Marsland in there, I heard some bad things about those speakers, (from Traynor users). Has anyone experienced those speakers?

2. The 5F1 is 4 ohms, the cab is 8 ohms. I know you can go up but not down but how does plugging a 4 ohms amp into a 8 or 16 ohms cab sounds? Should I expect a lose of sound quality?

Yeah I wouldn't go with the Marshland I would go for JVC or Kendwood or Pioneer or some MTXs. Seriously do not go for Marshland, i bought those once, and took em back the very same day.

Seems they are very muddy, bassy with no highs. I found a few Marshall cabs on my local CL but those are usually 16 ohms. Not sure how it would work with a 4 ohms amp.
