Is it possoble to connect...

[vintagedrive]

I purchased a Marshall AVT 150 combo and was wondering if it's possible to connect a 412 cabinet to it. I know that Marshall has a 112 extension cab that is made for the AVT line, but I would like to try a 412 or 212 cab I have and I don't want to fry anything trying to find out. The internal speaker is 8 Ohms, and the amp requires a load equal to or greater than 4 Ohms.

If the 4x12 is rated at 4 ohms or greater then I'd say go for it.

You basically want to match loads. If your amp wants to see 4 ohms, then make sure the cab is 4 ohms. If you do not match loads, you could damage the power amp section of you amplifier.
