Thomann would be making a huge mistake to bundle gear that would not function that way. So the cabs are probably 8 ohms each, but it is worth checking to be sure.
The speaker boxes probably have two jacks each, and you are supposed to connect the second jack of one speaker directly to the next speaker, in a chain. |

The less watts you have, the MORE cabs you need to get loud. |

| | Registered User | | Join Date: May 2005 Location: Zephyrhills, FL | | | I have a TC Electronic RH450 head. It has only one speaker output. I ordered two Hartke cabs from separate stores - a 410tp and a 210tp. Each sound great separately, but they both have only ONE input jack! HELP! How do I connect them all together? | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
