Orange OB1-500 safe to connect to Orange OBC-115 cabinet?

They are parallel, so use either of them as input/output.
Thank you for your swift response. I just found the instruction manual for the Little Bass Thing which shows a cable attached to each output port of the amp when using 2 x 8 ohm cabs but not how they join the cabs. Ade Emsley's YouTube presentation (LBT + 2x OBC112) looks like the cabs are in series. A pity the cabs didn't come with any instructions and there's no download support on the Orange site. Weirdly there's no clear and simple 'how to' lesson on YT either.

Even diagrams can be misread. When an amp has two speaker outputs, they are almost always in parallel internally. The same goes for dual connections on a speaker. When you see them daisy-chained it looks like series but the internal wiring dictates that it's parallel.

Thank you, that does assist some more. FWIW - this is the only diagram / info supplied in any literature.
