Can you gig with a 2X12?

Can you gig with a 2X12?

You can play almost any size gig with a 2×12, though a 4×12 will project sound out better, and as Cathbard said, you hear more from the amp itself instead of you monitor (this is especially good if you are a vocalist who needs to hear himself, like I am).

What’s better Wiring series or parallel?

What about power? As a general rule, parallel speakers are louder than series speakers. That’s because: Wiring speakers in series increases the total speaker impedance (Ohms) load, decreasing how much electrical current (amps) can flow.

Can you use a 4 ohm head with an 8 ohm cab?

The combined impedance of these speaker cabinets must not be less than 4 ohms. Two 8ohm cabinets is the ideal load for these amplifiers. If you are using one 4ohm cabinet, then no further speakers can be connected to the amplifier or the combined impedance will fall below 4 ohms.

Does bridging an amp reduce Ohms?

Bridging an amp sends all it’s power to one channel. It combines all channels and adds their resistance (OHms) together.

Should I buy a 2×12 or a vertical cabinet?

Going for a vertical version of an established 2×12 cabinet can be a really easy way of getting a well designed cabinet but one that is slightly better suited to your needs. You essentially get a very similar sound to the standard horizontal version but a slightly better spread and they tend to be easier to carry.

What size vertical cab do I Need?

Usually the two main points when choosing a vertical cab are width, often dictated to by the width of your amplifier and depth. Height is often limited, the smallest will be approximately 660mm and usually cabs don’t go taller than 760mm.

What is a panhead 2×12?

It’s loosely based around the Dumble cabs of the 70’s and 80’s. We named the Panhead after an infamous motorbike engine of the 1940’s, and like that engine it is simple and brutish. It’s the only 2×12 we make out of 18mm birch ply as standard and comes with a classic oval rear port.

What is the Friedman 2×12 ext?
