I have 3 combo amps each with a single 16 ohm speaker. baffles the heck out of me why Marshall would recommend a 2x12 8 ohm ext cabinet. I want to run both the internal speaker and the ext cabinet at the same time. I would like to put 8 ohm speakers in the combos to match the ext cabs. I have a JCM 2000 DSL 401, a DSL 40cr And an Origin 1x10 20 Watt. Can a16ohm speaker be upgraded with an 8 ohm speaker in these combos and if so what speakers would you recommend. Any additional suggestions or information is most welcome.

hello, change the selector of the 16 ohm jack to 8 ohms, then connect the additional 16 ohm speaker to that jack and the internal 16 ohm speaker to the other 8 ohm jack, two 8 ohm in series will add to the 16 ohm amp specification,
