I want to know if its ok to combine a ampeg svt 410 HE cab whit my svt 410 HLF cab becase de HE is 8 ohms and the HLF is 4ohms ??

What kind of head are you using with the cabs?

If your head can go down to 2 Ohms, you will be okay.

Then no, the 3Pro is 4 ohms minimum. Only use the hlf by itself.

Nope.... won't work goyo 007. Your 3 PRO is only 4 ohms stable. Combining a 4 ohm load (410HLF) and an 8 ohm load (410HE) will give you a 2.67 ohm impedance.
Some might disagree with me on this one but I've never been a fan of combining different impedances either. Especially with all tube amps.

Hope this helps!!!!

i don't see where it makes much sense, either.
