Son of bertha x2?

I love the sound of my son of bertha cab. Im wondering if i should buy another to stack on top of it for larger gigs. I know its not so good to mix drivers and i figured if i like the sound of one sob, then 2 would be great!

anything coherantly wrong with using 2 of these cabs? as far as watts/loudness/lmfaonub dont do that?

I think that when you refer to mix driver's is where you are incorrect.

If you use two 15" son of bertha cabs you should be fine. Its if you use a 4X10 and a 12 for example you get canceling frequencies.

I love the SOB. Mine really pumped with my SWR 350 head...and that was with only 240 watts. I would think a pair with enough headroom would take down walls.

I decided to buy the second sob and I'm super happy so far. I bought the cab used and when I use the 1/4 inch speaker cable everything is great but if I use a speakon cable I get some weird popping sounds. Anyone experience this?

It could be quite a few things but I'd start by removing the back plate and checking the soldier connections of the Speakon jack. By checking, I mean just re-soldiering them. You could put a ohm meter on the cable and the soldier joint and wiggle the cable to confirm if that's where it's going bad but it's just easier to reheat the soldier joints.
