aende Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 Hi All, I was considering buying a 'normal' amp which would take 2 x 8 ohm cabs. I use 2 x 4 ohm cabs right now, so, I have 2 choices; Rewire the cabs for 16ohms each (Speakers in series) and then use both on the head to create an 8 ohm load Use a series cable to join together the 2 4ohm cabs to create 8 ohm load Which would be better? Any thoughts on running 16 ohm cabs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GregBass Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 I have run 16 ohm cabs with no problem. I would suggest that rewiring the cabs is the best option - then you can use standard speaker leads to connect them. The less complication you have when setting up for a gig, the better, so I would keep it as standard as possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
