Sign in to disble this ad
Is it possible to hook an an 810 and a 115 together with an svt cl head. What I really want to do is have 2 115 cabs with the 810 laying side ways on top. Is this possible, i know there would then be 3 cabs so is that even possible? Thanks for your input.  |

Then you have one more out put from the head to any 8ohm cab. Therefore running your SVT at 2ohms.
Make sense?

By the same token two 115s won't keep up with an 810. If an 810 isn't loud enough you need to add another 810. I can't imagine an 810 not being loud enough, but to each their own. |

The SVT-CL head can operate at 4 ohms or 2 ohms. One 810 = 4 ohms. Two 810 cabs = 2 ohms.
You could run an SVT-CL with one 810 and two 15 cabs on the 2 ohm setting. I doubt it'd be worthwhile to do, though.

Then again, I would since I learned most of what I know about the subject from you
Jmelh, it's possible to hook up two 8 ohm 115's and a 4 ohm 810 to an SVT tuber. Daisy chain the two 115's into one input, the 810 into the other, and hit the 2 ohm switch. But really, it's not a great idea to run both from the same head because of the volume imbalance Bill speaks of. You want a badass SVT rig that'll have audience members puking up blood, get two 810's.
