Hi,

Can i run a 150W stiletto trident to a 2x12 140W recto cab?? i don't want to run my Trident on 50W. Will it overpowered the speakers? or is it possible??
Obviously the head has more power but i'm just wondering if it can be done??
thanks...

In short - Yes, without any problems.
But....If you run the Stiletto VVVV loud you will experience problems.
A 140W cab will be able to handle more than the specified rating for short periods of time.
As with any amp / speaker combination, as you crank the amp the overall tone changes, you may find you have to back off certain frequencies the louder you play.
 
So basically i cant play at full volume running 150W on the trident....anyways i love playing at 150W instead of 50W. sounds amazing. thanks for the response. i'm still a bit concern of damaging the speakers :)

if you don't crank the master/outupt past 75% in 150watt mode you'll be fine

what if i use another 2x12?? so that makes it 2 2x12 cab, will that "spread out" the power??
