I recently bought a Kustom Hustler and a Kustom Sidewinder, and am now sprucing them up. I also own a K250 head and two 2x15 cabs. The K250's optimal ohm load is listed as 4 ohms on the back of the amp, but I don't see the ohmage listed on the back of either of my 2x15 cabs (chrome ports & Kustom Electronics, Inc badges on both). I think they are each 8 ohms, so I'd have to use BOTH to get 100 watts RMS outta the head. . . is that accurate?

The Hustler, which sounds GREAT, has 4x10's and the Sidewinder has 1x15, but there's no ohmage listed on the back of either amp. I was under the impression that these are essentially identical amps, and that only the cabinets and speaker compliments differ. Is this true?
