I've been thinking, until I get some extra money, using my Peavey 210 TVX cabinet with my Yorkville xc115. The Peavey is 4 ohms and the Yorkville is 8 ohms, I use a GK 800rb, and the low end handles 4 ohms and the hi end handles a 8 ohm load, so the Peavey would be in the bass (Deeper lows than the Yorkville). I was wondering has anyone tried this configuration.

I believe the 800 only handles a 4 ohm load, so you wouldn't be able to run that combo full range. Looks like you can only run that setup in the biamp mode. |

The "Low amp" (300 watts 4 ohm) can also be run in full or biamp mode.

| | | | Let me explain, the 800rb has too amps in it one for the highs 100watts @8 ohms, and one for lows 300 watts @ 4 ohms they can be ran at full range or biamp. With that being said, the Peavey is a 4 ohm cabinet, and the Yorkville is a 8 ohm cabinet.
