powered kemper with small/tiny passive cabinet

pnowak2 · Nov 21st 2018

hey,

i wonder if this is possible.

i have very small cab which shurely does not match 600W of power from kemper.

is there a way so those those may work safely both for amp and cab ? or should i always connect big cabinet which matches kemper power..

any settings in kemper to limit the output power or sth ?

what happens if by accident i crank up the main volume on kemper over this small cabinet ? seems dangerous.

What kind of little speaker?

If you keep the volume down far enough with a guitar or PA speaker, you may be OK.

But, If you “accidentally” play too loud, you could destroy the speaker and potentially damage the KPA.

for example sth like that

no way to say to kemper: limit output power to max 20W (instead of 600W).

like simple mapping the min - max range of volume knob electronically would do the trick..

Make sure Power Amp Boost is not turned on, and keep the volume to a reasonable level. If you hear the speaker physically suffering, turn down
