Same speakers as the 4x10, and thus double impedance? That is what you need to aim for to make the 6x10 right.

eh?

im thinking of putting this atop my 410 eventually, or maybe grabbing a sp410 as they appear to have stopped making them? only the sp212 on the site now?

just looking for view on the 210 looks to be in the same size cab as the 115?

To match up a 2x10 and a 4x10, you need the 2x10 to have double the impedance of the 4x10, so a 8 ohm 4x10 and a 16ohm 2x10. That way the power distrivution is equal. An SP cab is definitely a bad plan to mix with a standard 4x10. Its a bad plan all on its own.

will i not be sending 500w to each cab from my head? so it will be equal, dnt wanna have the amp running with a weird numbered impedance aswell.

any reason for the sp dislike?

500w to 2 10s and 500w to 4 10s, which means some tens getting 250w each, and some getting 125w each. Effectively means your 4x10 is stuck with half power whilst your 2x10 is at max, and additionally that means the sound of the 2x10 dying will be covered by the output of the 4x10 so you won't know to turn down as clearly.

Problem with the SP cabs is you pay for and feed power twice as many drivers as are making sound. The rear two in an isobaric config are performing the function that the back of the cones of the drivers in a standard cab would. So you get the same max output as a 2x10, and need twice as much power to get there. The upsides are being able to write bigger numbers on the spec sheet.
