redddog · 18th January 2007

I'm using one of those little 5 watt Epiphone heads. They have 16, 8 and 4 ohms outs. The speakers are 8 ohms but if I'm not sure how running another cab in series will affect the load. I have no clue what you mean when you say "6 contact socket" and even less of an idea on how to begin wiring one. If you could briefly touch on how to wire in parallel and in series, I would greatly appreciate it. Also should the second cab be wired in parallel?

Thanks.
