I use to own a hartke kilo and had the hydrive 410 and 15 cabs. I had nothing but problems with the kilo so i returned it and got a gk 1001rb ii. Do you think i should keep the hydrive cabs and run the gk through them or a set of gk cabs. I was reading somewhere that the gk 1001rb ii has a setting for biamp which i am unfamiliar with. Can i ise this setting with the hydrive cabs or will i need a pair of gk cabs. If anyone coild help me out it would be much appreciated.

I use to run a hartke kilo and had bought the hydrive410 and 15 cas with it. The kilo had problems. I returned it and bought a gk 1001rb ii. Should i use the hydrives or go with the 410 neo cab? Do they make an 810 neo cab? I read that the gk 1001rb ii has a feature to adjust biamp levels. I am unfamiliar with what a biamp is. But i know the neos allow this. I dont think the hydrives do. Thanks
The Hydrives will run just fine from the G-K. The G-K NEO 410 is pretty low end heavy unlike the snap of the Hartkes. The G-K cabs (NEO or RBH series only) can have the tweeter horn run from the front of the amp head with a separate built in amp and master volume control. It may be a feature you like or not use at all.
Im sorry im mot so gear savy. When connecting the 1001rb ii to both the hydrive 410 and 15 do i use one speakon jack and daisy chain the cabs or do i use a speakon cable with an individual speakon jack for each cab. The amp has 2 speakon jacks and two regular speaker cable jacks. I remember with my hartke head iwas told to put the amp in bridge mono mode and daisy chain the cabs through speakon. Thanks
They are all in parallel so it does not matter. Either two speakons, or daisy chain one of them will work.
