Ohms question
Sign in to disble this ad
I'm gonna buy a 2x15 cabinet. It's wired at 4 ohms. I'd like to grab another later to use two. Can I wire or have the bottom wired to to 8 ohms so I can use two bottoms? My head is 250w at 8 ohms, 350 at 4.

Better to buy a 8 ohm cab. When you add a second you'll have a total 4 ohm load that your amp will still be happy with. No re-wiring needed.
