Connecting the Mark V to two different cabinets.

[Supreeth]

Hi Everyone,

I have a 2x12 Rectifier cabinet (8 ohms) that I've been using with my Mark V, and I would now like to connect my 1x12 halfback widebody cabinet (also 8 ohms) to make it a 3x12 setup. To achieve this, do I simply have to connect the second 8 ohm speaker out to the 1x12 or should I use the two 4 ohm outs? (first 4 ohm out into the 2x12 cab, and the second into the 1x12).

Thanks,
Supreeth

Yes.

 

[Supreeth]

Yes.

Thanks. Which option is the correct one though? Using the 2 8 Ohm outs or using the 2 4 ohm outs?

Cheers,

Thanks. I will try it out tonight after I get home from work.

If you look on the back by the speaker 4 ohm jacks, it actually says "Use for 2x8ohm cabs" or something like that. There is nothing really to try. :wink:
