Evans SE-200 Question

Post by joe long »

I replaced the Delta lite speaker with a JBL D-130F 15" speaker at 8 ohms. Sounds great at home and on the job. Did I goof by putting an 8 ohms speaker in this amp? I belive the Delta lite is 4 ohms.

The Delta Lite is 8 ohms. However, if you would have used a 4 ohm speaker you would get the full 200 watts. The SE-200 is rated 200 watts into 4 ohms. With an 8 ohm speaker the max you can get is about 125 watts.
