Amp question

[whelan227]

Hello. I have an ampeg b2re head (450 watts). i also have an eden 210t which is rated at 8ohm and 250 watts. I'm looking at adding the ampeg svt 15e but its at 200 watts. It is 8 ohms also. When I hook up the two cabs will there be a problem bc one handles 200 watts and one handles 250? Thank you.

It shouldn't. If you wire them in parallel, you should be getting 4 ohms which is within the head's specs. I have an SVT350 (the equivalent of the B2R) hooked up to a 210 and 115 as well and the setup more than meets my needs.

That's what they make volume knobs for.


I run a head that is capable of puting out over 1,000 watts @ 4 ohms with a cab rated at 600 watts for years. Have not blown anything yet.
