Trace Elliot stack options now with horn cab

[ziggydolphinboy]

Hi guys girls and those that can go either way!!!

just got a trace 150watt@8ohms Horn box NOT a 4x5 bright box


its obviously suited to the last trace cabs (small ones).

so do i just plug it in like this;-
jack out from amp into my main cab then out of the link of the cab into the input of the horn cab?

and am i plugging my stack in properly;-
jack out from amp head to input of 1st cab then link to link to the other cab?
and ( i just thought of this) does the 1st cab i plug in from the head get more power 1st?


now heres another question! (sorry);-
can i use all three cabs without another head?

and would a 4x5 200watt bright box sound better than the horn box?

kindest regards
ziggy/john.

i don't know anything about the horn box... but the bright box has a high pass filter which presents a high impedance so it can be used with 2 other cabs without killing the amp... if i remember rightly, for some reason the bright box is stated as being 8ohm too, so maybe the horn box works in the same way... if not then you would only be able to use it with one other cab :/

the way you said of linking them should work because trace (and everyone else i think) wires the link plugs as parallel with the inputs so it basically works exactly like plugging it straight into the amp, just with a shorter lead.
