Question about the SVT 4 Pro

Sign in to disble this ad
Howdy folks. Just a question about hooking this amp up to cabs and the output I'd be getting and I want to see if I'm getting this right. If I want to run the 4 pro in dual mono mode, and I hook up a cab to both power amp A and power amp B with the stereo switch out, and both cabs are 8 ohm will I be getting a 4 ohm load between both? Or will it be running at 8 ohms seeing as they're 2 separate power amps? I understand I can get the full 4 ohm load fom running it mono bridged and daisy chaining the cabs, but I'm just a tad confused about the dual mono/stereo setup and what output I'd be getting.

If you plug an 8 ohm speaker into each power amp you will get the 8 ohm power output from each amp.

you should just mono bridge the cabs, so you are getting 1200watts into 4 ohms.
to make sure that happens, the speakon that goes into the map has to be wired +1,+2.
then plug into one of your cabs, and link the other one.
good luck.
