flippyfloop Posted May 28, 2015 Posted May 28, 2015 As the title says. I have one output on my amp & wondering how to run it into two cabs that each have only one input. For example tecamp puma 500, x2 GK neo 112's. Quote
Guest bassman7755 Posted May 28, 2015 Posted May 28, 2015 Generally you run cabs in parallel so I guess youd need some sort of splitter cable. Of course you need to calculate the parallel impedance so it matches your amp, the most common combination is two 8-ohm cabs in parallel giving 4-ohm which is optimal for the vast majority of amps.

clauster Posted May 28, 2015 Posted May 28, 2015 With something like this [url="http://www.farnell.com/datasheets/1505063.pdf"]http://www.farnell.com/datasheets/1505063.pdf[/url] Although this is a 4 pole speakon. I don't know if you'd need to find a 2 pole speakon splitter. Quote
flippyfloop Posted May 28, 2015 Author Posted May 28, 2015 Thanks guys. Thought I would need a splitter box or something. Crappy design choice by GK there. Will continue to look for cheap 12's with input & link. Quote

Merton Posted May 28, 2015 Posted May 28, 2015 Ask our very own OBBM to make you a box like Clauster showed you Quote

MoonBassAlpha Posted May 28, 2015 Posted May 28, 2015 (edited) Is there room to add another socket in parallel on the cab connector plate? Edited May 28, 2015 by MoonBassAlpha Quote

tauzero Posted May 29, 2015 Posted May 29, 2015 The GK Neo 112 IIs have a speakon and a jack. I used them with a Puma 900 by running speakon-speakon into the first cab, then jack-speakon from the first to the second cab. Quote
flippyfloop Posted May 29, 2015 Author Posted May 29, 2015 Thanks tauzero, that should work out fine then. Thanks to all for the input. All my leads are made by OBBM, good stuff & reliable. Quote
