    44 mag into a 2×12. The 12s are 8 ohms a piece.
    Wired for 4 ohms the 44 mag sounds absolutely
    fantastic until you go past 11 o’clock. The amp
    Sounds like a bucket head solo.

    Both the 22 and the 44 work only on 8 or 16 ohms.

    or 16 ohms, but it doesn’t work on 4. when they first advertised the 22′ it was supposed to work on 4 ohms too, but there where issues with it, so they stopped advertising that it worked on 4 ohms

    On the literature I got with my 22 Caliber it says it’ll work with 4-16 ohms, but not reliably at 4ohms… break up problems and all.

    Yeah, but it sound JAWSOME @ 4 ohms until the circuit breaker shits the bed in the pedal.

    And THAT my friend is why I’d be more than happy to try it hahahaha.
    Considering how small it is- amazing just how much the little bugger can do. I’m more interesting in that that what it doesn’t.

    in the video when the .22 first came out, didn’t mike say it could drive 1Mohms? anyone ever try running it into a pedal at all? did it just predictably ruin the pedal?

    My amigo accidentally ran it into his equalizer, but it didn’t ruin the pedal. It also didn’t work either

    Yes, that is true, but later on they found out that at 4 ohms it was unstable and now they advertise it to work at 8-16 ohms

    Is there cases of any 22 Calibers working at 4 ohms? Mine says 4-16 ohm on it, but it seems it wasn’t properly tested at 4 ohm upon initial release from what I’m reading here.

    Will running it at 4 ohms break it? I was going to try mine and see, but don’t want to cause any issues.

    I’d not think you cab burn that amp up by running it at incorrect impedece. The amps seem to be pretty idiot proof.

    You can definetly burn an amp up running it at the wrong impedance. But not this one
    No matter what the issues are at 4 ohms this is just an incredibly engineered must have product
    ESPECIALLY FOR THE MONEY.
