splitter!!!!

life of brian pun!!!......any way, my amp has 2 out put channels im only running 1x15 off it,but am about to build a 2x12 and maybe another 15,im just wondering if theres a splitter box or something to plug multiple caps in to the amp????:bassist:
 
It depends.

Say, you have a 8 ohm cabinet now and you build two cabinets 4 ohms each. Then your amp needs to be able to run at 4 ohm load, but the two new cabinets need to be connected in series (4 ohms + 4 ohms = 8 ohms). These two loads can now be connected to your "output channels" which most likely are just cabinet connectors wired in parallel.

For the series connection, you need to build a "series box".

If, on the contrary, you need for some reason to connect more cabinets in parallel, you need a "parallel box".
