b)everything works...but not as loud
c)everything works...but some frequencies are lost, thus sounds not as good as it could but still not bad
d)everything works...but some frequencies are lost, thus sound is shit
e)shit starts smoking...the cab or amp gets toasted
f)people die

low ohm head --> high ohm cabinet = lower volume but hunky dory none the less.

Tiny and i mean TINY fucking reduction in volume. Also, its an SS head so nothing will blow up. Ever. Unless you or the amp is retarded



the big no no is high ohm head --> low ohm cabinet, with tube heads it makes the transformer die, with ss heads.... i dont think it does anything hahahah

I was very bemused as a youngster watching the Golden Girls when Blanche said she was going to "spank her fanny" I had visions of a geriatric vertical bacon sandwich red and bruised from being disciplined!!!
