I have a Fender Pro Tube reverb combo and the specs say it's 8 ohms output. I want to run an extention cabinet w/it. What ohm 1/12" speaker/cabinet do I need to run w/the internal speaker?
Thanks! :?:

It should tell you near the ext. jack on the back of the amp or else in the manual or user guide. Fender often states their minimum total impedance as "total load". This refers to the total combined impedance of all speakers being used.

This web site will help you understand how to calculate your total load using series, parallel and combinations of both. You will, of course, need to know what the impedance is for the speaker(s) currently in your amp. The web site is for car audio but the principles and calculations are always the same.

Just think of how awesome a guitar player you could have been by now if you had only spent the last 10 years practicing instead of obsessing over pickups and roasted maple necks.
