    I have a hartke 410bxl and also a 210bxl. what is the best way to connect them both to my ha3500? if i use a speaker output each, i dont seem to gain much volume and im not sure if the vol is shared properly between the 210 and 410. the 410 has two imputs on the back, i read somewhere about using one as an output to the other cab or something?

    Cheers

    Do the ohms of the two cabs match?

    Since ALl I've ever seen hartke make(in 2 & 4x10s) were 8 Ohms, you'd have the same power output if you went from each output(as I do with my PV and JBL 15's, because of only 1 jack on each cabinet) as you would if you went daisy chaining the two, and one speaker cable coming from the head...You'll get 350W either way...

    :::EDIT::: Of course they don't share the same volume, each cab is getting 175W(1/2 of 350) but the 4x10 has more speaker area, so it'll move more air..
