Best way to connect cabs....

[StrangePlayer]

SO I have a hartke stack. A 115 (500 watts at 8 ohm) and a 210 cab (500 Watt at 8 ohms) with LX8500 (800 watt)head. Right now I have a cable going from the head to the 210, then a cable from the 210 to the 115. Is this the proper or best way to do this OR should I run a cable from the head to the 210...then another separate cable also from the head to the 115 as well?? Does it make a difference??

Thoughts???

Thanks
Chris

I prefer the former as the amp has a single Speakon output. Simply run a separate Speakon-equipped cable between the two enclosures. This is a parallel “daisy-chain” connection with a resulting 4 ohm load.

They each the same.
Hook how you like and enjoy.

Either way works, do what you like, both methods will result in 4 ohm impedance
