Delberthot Posted February 15, 2010 Share Posted February 15, 2010 (edited) Do these only have speakon connections or are they the combined ones where you can also plug in 1/4" jack cables as well?

At least, i think that's possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delberthot Posted February 15, 2010 Author Share Posted February 15, 2010 yes it is - good news if it does have speakon cos I have 2 cables I bought from OBBM when I had my Schroeder cab Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moos3h Posted February 15, 2010 Share Posted February 15, 2010 They are indeed Speakon only. Cheers, James Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mandril Posted February 16, 2010 Share Posted February 16, 2010 Oh God! I bough a speakon-jack cable from OBBM and now is not going to work with the Terror Bass? Delberthot, do yo have a speakon-speakon to change? ^_^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could also be that the input on the cab is a dual receiver, i.e. it can accept the Neutrik Speakon [b][i]or[/i][/b] a 1/4" jack. HAve a look at it again befoe you panic.

Mandril Posted February 16, 2010 Share Posted February 16, 2010 Nah, it's a barefaced vintage, it's only speakon... maybe I can try to replace the jack with a speakon. It needs soldering, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delberthot Posted February 26, 2010 Author Share Posted February 26, 2010 Ok so its definitely speakon only on the cab so I've got that sorted out and I've got myself a 40dB attenuator as well One small thing - when I have a single 8ohm cab connected to it with the 8ohm switch set, nothing comes out if I connect it to the input furthest away from the switch but I get output from the other output. is that normal? The lack of a manual doesn't help things Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delberthot Posted February 26, 2010 Author Share Posted February 26, 2010 I was wondering if it had something to do with the switch itself - if it is capable of putting out 500w into 4 or 8ohms then are there 2 250w amps inside operating in some kind of bridged mono when you have the 8ohm switch selected which would stop anything coming out of the other output or should I be worrying?
