Yeah, I'm imagining aluminum coned P.A speakers and a few cabs in parallel would be one of very few options for running that thing. Like I'm physically trying to imagine what that would sound like but... yeah. That's a serious piece of kit.

maybe this?

I'd imagine that would be it's clean spec. So if a 400W is 400W clean, 650W dirty 1000W amp is 1000W clean 1625W dirty, so yeah the 1200W cab is toast.

I'd try running 4 to 12 8x10 from it.  

What's scarier (to me) for that stuff is he's running a plate voltage of 2.5KV, no way I want to repair that sucker. Did you read this bit?

The two F,1amp fuses on the + and – ends of the main 2,500 volts HT rail should preferably be of the inch and a quarter type (32mm), and should have plastic covers over them, with all connections covered with shrink-sleeving too. Both fuses should also be mounted on a single (each) insulated pillar, and a minimum of one inch (25mm) from the chassis. In the event of a blown (shorting) 813 tube, once either (or both) of these fuses pop there is a chance of arcing if the fuse length is too short and/or too close to the chassis with connections exposed!

If the fuse is too short, it becomes a spark plug when blown.

Wow that was shite... (the first video).

How exciting! If that amp becomes a bomb when a fuse blows it's the greatest and most rock 'n' roll amplifier ever concieved!
