Hey does anyone knows the impedance of Mustang's I speaker?
Can I just measure it with a multimeter?

Impedance isn't the same as resistance. Maybe or maybe not resistance is a good approximation in this case, I don't know.

Yeah the R should be around 6.2 for a 8ohms speaker. It's just that the 8ohms is in regards to AC current and the multimeter injects DC current to measure it. I saw an youtube video explaining it eheheh. I'm going to make an external conector to my speaker to use the mustang I and when I want to turn it of and use my tube amp on it I can :)

That's not what I meant, though I'm far from knowledgeable on the topic. Impedance varies with frequency so I don't know what DC resistance would tell you, if anything at all.

I also saw an article about it saying the very same.

Impedance is resistance.

The impedance is 8ohms.

So does that mean "Impedance is futile!"?? :lol:

Sorry, couldn't "resist"! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Oh, somebody stop me before I get into trouble!!
