| Gear nut | Help!!!! Stereo/Mono guitar cab wiring??
I am having issues wiring up my guitar cab, was hoping some of you would know in here.. It has a stereo/mono switch and i think thats where my problem lies.. My 4x12 cab has 4 wires total from the input jacks, in two sets. Left and right, stereo/mono. I have Four matching 16 ohm speakers in the cab. I started the wiring with the Positive from the mono (right) side of the input jack like in the diagram. I left the stereo (left wires) unhooked and completed the loop with the Negative from the same mono side as when I started. Followed the diagram to the t only there was that other set of wires from the stereo side of the input jack. I figured I wont be using stereo so It wouldn't matter if the wires were left unhooked. So I switched my amp to 16 ohms, cab to mono and nothing....I think I could just barely hear my tubes distorting when I played, it did not sound too good....... ![]() So my drummer wired it his way and got it working. He said it should be 8 ohm, the cheap-o meter said 10. Switched amp back to 8 ohms and it works. I would like to get back in the cab if there is a more proper way wiring, Please help. |
