Impedence = resistance...you need the right load or your amp will work too hard!
Any power amp with work as long as you don't go and hook up multiple cabs, creating rediculous impedences that the amp can't handle. If your not sure what the lowest/highest impedence that the amp can handle is, do some research or read the spec sheet. Impedences are very important when dealing with tube amplifiers. You must match them, or your tube life will be degraded as well as your tone. Hybrid/solid state amps have some leway, but it stilll isn't a good idea to mis-match. Confirm your cab impedence and hook it up accordingly. There are usually impedence selectors on amps that need to be switched accordingly.
Also, a depending factor on deciding which amp with suit your needs may be the available imput formats....make sure that the pre-outs are compatible to the amp-ins.
Yeah, the cab is just speakers.....brands don't matter, you don't have to match them up. Sometimes varying in components is what it takes to get your tone. Greg.
