Please help.

Woah, your amp will get a lot louder with 2 fifteens than a single twelve. Do be careful with your hearing. I have a 24/7 ringing from playing with 180W into 8 ohms so I know what I'm talking about and I own Behringer gear too. File all that under "oops".

You know, you can blow your eardrums by underpowering them...

I will be careful. Thanks. Never got to try it tonight. Too late. Gonna fire it up tomorrow. I did carry the cabs up to the 2nd floor though.

Wow. Plugged in. Ran the two 15's. Big differance from one 12. I was suprised at none to very little break up NEAR max volumes. Very loud. Large gig ready. Or next outdoor event. Got one on the 4th. Perfect to get over drummer. Right now in the music room Not so practical. Althoughif i can live with the lost space, they sound good at lower vol too. And seperates the sound. Thanks for everyones help.

You're welcome, I think. Got some earplugs yet?

 

[Downunderwonder]

Wow. I took the earplug remark to mean "careful with your ears, it's gonna get loud", not a snide remark about Behringer. I rehearse though a fancy-pants out-of-production Swedish 150W "hi fi" bass combo, and even in practice, I wear earplugs. Etymotic, of course...

For the record, this was my intent.

I think the OP should acknowledge that. I don't see what is so offensive about telling someone that their amp is going to become louder if they configure their rig differently.

For the record , I read the entire thread and thought downunderwonder was advising caution due to the increased SPL, not a slam or judgement of the OPs gear.

Thought that might work out better for you Further proof that speaker area trumps amp wattage

If I misunderstood a post and reacted in a harsh and inappropriate manner, I do appologize. I did offer a Thank you to ALL those who participated with helpful and possitive feedback. I extend that thank you with my appology to Downunderwunder. I think we can see how the misunderstanding occurred.

 

[cyco739z]

The post said " oh, get some earplugs then" and nothing else, after I listed the name brand of my amp, a Behringer. I think we all can see the confusion. Again my apology. To Downunderwunder no one else. I post frequently and usually for advise through others past experiences. Its appreciated.

This is so true. I am becoming quite amazed at the gigs I can cover with 180 watts and a good 212 cabinet.
