Part of my new rig

[yorick]

Here's some new Ashdown ABM cabs my guitarist picked up fpr me to replace my slighly knackered 4 x 10........

[budget bassist]

Hahaha wow! Do you think he got enough??!!

[phsycoandy]

wont be very loud, looks like theres no drivers in em!

[yorick]

There's drivers in two of them, just need six 10" drivers for the rest......

What amp are you going to use and how are you going to wire it all? Looks like an impedance nightmare.

Yep looks like your going to have [i]impedance[/i] problems !

You might even become [i]impedant[/i] and struggle to get [i]get it up [/i]to a decent level

Ooooh err missus

[yorick]

I'll only use the two at any on time. Keep the others as spares or stage fillers for larger stages!!!! By the way i use a 90's Marshall DBS400 head....

Ah Nige, you trying to battle my "rig of doom" are you?!?

[yorick]

Even with all those cabs, plus my head in a flightcase.... It'll still be lighter than your behemoth

Just get grills on them, leave the drivers out. Take all of them to [b]every[/b] gig, you'll look ace on stage with all that behind you.

Now where did I leave that dry ice machine?

Presumably you are running an amp expecting a 4 ohm load?

Load 4 of them with 2x8 ohm speakers in series to give you 4x 16 ohm cab. All of them connected will give you a 4 ohm load.

Keep one as a spare or get another empty 2x10 and load the both cabs with 2x 16 ohm speakers in parallel. That gives you a 4x10 rig running at 4 ohms. Easy.

It's hardly a rig of doom, it's an 8x10 effectively! But a lot easier to carry around... and that's exactly what my rig is gonna look like!

You don't need mics with speakers like that

...and what's wrong with a DI.

Yeah, I know it was a joke...
