    Speaker impedance question

    in Amps and Cabs

    Posted

    Have a Peavey 2x10 combo running a 4ohm internal speaker at 350watts with the capability for an extension speaker at 4 ohms to take it down to 2 ohms and 500 watts.

    Would i be able to add an 8 ohm cab without damaging the amp? Just want to biggen up the sound with a 12" cab and theyre not easy to find at 4 ohms. Dont need the full 500 watts really.

    Any thoughts?

    If its the one in Gillingham with the sticker on, it sounds a bit too good to be true. Check everything out including the truss rod. Theres a link below which id's it as an early Czech model with a generic preamp and EMG HZ pups.

    [i]Brand new strings - never been played.[/i]
    [i]1 tiny mark on the top of the headstock but otherwise immaculate finish.[/i]
    [i]Bridge pickup volume knob has the tiniest amount of play - guessing it just needs a tighten up.[/i]

    SOLD SOLD SOLD!!!!! TC Electronic BG500-115 Combo

    in Amps and Cabs For Sale

    Hi Lefty

    The combo weighs 70lbs - its a bit more than some of the opposition which seem to come in around 50lbs - but because its sort of a taller, narrow shape it seems quite easy to grab and lift if you know what i mean. I was initially a bit sceptical about the weight when i bought it, but in reality it hasnt been an issue. It has 2 good high, side mounted steel handles.

    Re the contour controls - they both act as a scoop but with different parameters (prefer number 2 myself as it seems to give more of a rumble).You can also have them both switched out obviously for a middier tone. Im not familiar with the 450 for a direct comparison i'm afraid.

    It has loads of headroom. Ive never needed to have it above 3 in a rehearsal room with 2 guitarists and a loud drummer and there is no distortion or fartyness occuring even when you crank the bass up. The 15 definitely gives a bigger, warmer rounder sound than 10's for sure. It seems to be from the "set everything to zero then tweak a little bit" school. The TweeterTone makes quite a subtle difference to the tone as well as adjusting the tweeter level - it appears to round the sound a little as its reduced.

    Its a fantastic amp for the money and should see you through most gigs.
