Hey, ampfixer. Could we get a beginners/intermediate tut in matching heads with cabs?

Yanno, if you got time/inclination.
 
I always found the topic quite confusing but I ain't no electricimacal talking dood liker yerself.
 
Basically like ohm/wattage stuff, speaker cab wiring configs to watch out for... yanno crap to avoid blowing heads and/or speaker cones, etc.
 
I'd absolutely appreciate your thoughts on this as would many others.

    There seemed no point in me answering when somebody had already posted a link that covers things. You feel free to say whatever you want buddy, my toes are just fine.
