BASainty Posted July 16, 2013 Posted July 16, 2013 I have a Peavey TKO 400 watt combo which has been doing me great so far, nice and loud and produces the sounds I like. But as I use it so often for practice and gigs I want to make sure I get as much life out of it as possible and take some pressure of the 1x15 speaker that's built in so I was thinking about getting an extension cab. I've read up that i need a cab that has a tolerance of no less than 8ohms but im not sure on what cab would be best to get, I read somewhere that another 1x15 is the best option but having no experience I wouldn't know if that's true, also what kind of wattage would I need to be looking at?

Lozz196 Posted July 16, 2013 Posted July 16, 2013 You`ll need an 8ohm cab that is capable of at least 200 watts, as the amp will send half of the 400 watts to each speaker cab. Quote
BASainty Posted July 16, 2013 Author Posted July 16, 2013 Thanks =) I never have understood much about heads and cabs hence why i generally stick with combos. Any makes in particular i should be looking at? Quote
Phil Starr Posted July 17, 2013 Posted July 17, 2013 If you like the sound then buy a matching Peavey speaker TKO 115, anything else will change the sound. Quote
