[quote name='waynepunkdude' post='632109' date='Oct 21 2009, 09:28 AM']I'm looking at a 2X15 that is 500W @ 4OHMS my 4X10 is 600W @ 8OHMS would the uneven load cause a problem or will it be fine as it is off of 2 separate power amps?[/quote]

Find out what speakers are in it, post it up, with some cab measurements, and someone can give a rough idea of how much low end juice it can take.

People do have a habit of writing about it on the internet though. Give us the cab details and gogo gadget google.

For that matter those on the current Eminence SVT driver are also unavailable. I've got them, but like all those in the industry I won't reveal them, as it's privileged information. As for measuring them yourself, unless you've got a Klippel analyzer handy, or tear the voice coil out to measure the coil length and plate thickness, that all important xmax remains an unknown. It's easier to just schlep your rig into a store and try cabs.

I ran the aluminium coned one for a gig, did an admirable job of kicking out the required bottom end.
