Trace Elliot 1518 with GK 1001 RB2 & 410RBH?

[The Dude Next Door]

Hello Lads!

I'm new here but I think this is the right place to get my questions answered.
I currently play a 5-String in a Metalcore / Sampletext - Core band. I want to gear up, and my choice probably would be a GK 1001 RB2 and GK 410 RBH (8Ohms). I already have a Trace Elliot 1518 Cab (8Ohms).
I don't really dig the whole Impendences stuff or at least I'm not really sure about it… So could you help me? Is it possible to combine these two cabs with the amp or will it blow up? If this is a possibility, than how should I do that?
There are like this Bi-Amp option thing and normal Amp Outputs. What's the best way?

Do you like the sound of your trace cab on its own? Have you played the 1001rb and the 410 RBH?

Yep, I do actually like the sound of te1518. And the sound/specs of the amp are pretty much what I want.

I would get the amp first and see how you like the sound of it with your TE. If you dig it on its own, then add a second matching cab.

I would not think that the TE and the GK 410 would pair well.

So if I want to stay with TE1518, what could you recommend as second Cab?

A second TE1518.

As much as I like my 1518 I would hesitate to play "anything-core" through it with a big GK amp. Too much power, not enough EQ. Even a pair can only get you so loud, not nearly 8x10 loud, which seems to be the minimum for "anything-core".

Pairing 1x15 with 4x10 puts the 15 in grave danger of being blown up. There's roughly 458,724 posts on TB about that.
