hrl_damo Posted October 17, 2008 Posted October 17, 2008 Hi guys and gals, need some advise. I am looking to upgrade my head amp from an Ashdown Superfly to a Ashdown ABM EVO II Rackmounted head amp. I have read up on the amp and it would give me perfect power etc my only concern is that on the back there is only 1 speaker output. How would this work with two cabs...I have 1x15 and 4x10 Ashdown MAG DEEP CABS. I dont want to order this head online and find that I cannot use it with both cabs... Am I missing somehting with this or is this a real issue? Please help people!!! Quote
Machines Posted October 17, 2008 Posted October 17, 2008 There's 2 speaker outputs . Both SpeakOn connectors rather than standard jack, your MAG cabs will have both available.

hrl_damo Posted October 17, 2008 Author Posted October 17, 2008 I think that is the ashdown abm evo III not the ABM evo II :s Quote
Protium Posted October 17, 2008 Posted October 17, 2008 The EVO II has one jack and one speakon out Quote
hrl_damo Posted October 17, 2008 Author Posted October 17, 2008 will that work then? I can do the jack to one cab and the speakon to the other? Quote
Protium Posted October 17, 2008 Posted October 17, 2008 You can do yeah coz they're in parallel, or see what sockets are on the cabs. Quote
bassmansky Posted October 18, 2008 Posted October 18, 2008 speakon from head to 4x10.then speaker lead from 4x10 into 1x15 sorted.great amp the evo11 although you could get negative comments about it.but with all the ashy rigs you see on telly etc they must be the dogs gonads! Quote
hrl_damo Posted October 20, 2008 Author Posted October 20, 2008 So I finally ordered the amp with soundslive.co.uk and it was dispatched today so hopefully will receive it tomorrow at some point!! Will let you all know how I get on with it. Really looking forward to playing through it. I am playing a gig on Wednesday night so if its here by then I will hopfully get the full use of it there ) Quote
hrl_damo Posted October 24, 2008 Author Posted October 24, 2008 Yeh man, got it early this week. All I can say it wow!!! Used it on Wednesday night at a gig, absolutely blew me and and the people in front of the stage lol It is exactly the sound I have been after for a long time. I was able to use both cabs with it as well, I was worrying over nothing lol The valve preamp has a real grunt to it! Love it Quote
