best way to connect mono head + 2 8ohm cabs

Sign in to disble this ad
I am looking to get the most headroom out of my rig.

I have two 8 ohm cabs and a 575w mono head. The head is not able to be bridged. It has two speaker outputs, one 1/4" and one Speakon.

My question is, should I run each cab off each individual speaker output, or daisy chain the two cabs together? Does it even matter?

I'd daisy chain using speakons because that's what I use but in the end there's no difference.

There is a difference, speakons are a better, more secure connection
