Members V-man Posted February 4, 2010 Members Share Posted February 4, 2010 I am experimenting with a wall of doom with one amp capturing the mids and shrill highs and the other capturing the thunderous bass tones. The current temporary setup is JCM900--> Avatar 412 (V30s) and JCM800 Super Bass -->Ampeg 410 Bass cab running in stereo. I am waiting on my 1960A cab to arrive, which would make the intended setup as follows: JCM 900 --> 1960A and JCM 800-->Avatar 412 running in stereo. I believe this will be the best setup because the 900 was built around the GT-75 speakers of the 1960A and the "flat" square cab with V30s would define the bass of the Super Bass. Now this is where you come in... I am screwing around with the temporary setup and getting some ridiculous bass tone with the Ampeg 410, especially when I play through the HOG. I was wondering if I should make the wall of doom truly imposing by playing the Super Bass through BOTH the Ampeg 410 AND the Avatar 412. This provides a total of three cabs: one for the highs, the lows, and the sub-guitar bass tones that the -1 and -2 octaves of the HOG would generate, along with general thunder. The Avatar runs at 8 Ohm, as does the Ampeg, and I can run the Superbass at 4 Ohm, so impendance shouldn't be an issue (to my knowlege). What to you think/know/advise regarding a tube amp running both a guitar and bass cab while playing guitar through it? Any hazards to equipment? Tone issues? Suggestions?

Members ten56gibby Posted February 4, 2010 Members Share Posted February 4, 2010 Yay! As long as you've got your ohms matched up right, there should be 0 issues (not accounting for neighbors) I'm running my 1960a and Avatar 212 side by side. AMAZING.

Members ExiledCrow Posted February 4, 2010 Members Share Posted February 4, 2010 Why not? Assuming there isn't a load problem, and I am NOT the one to ask about that, sounds like it would be AWESOME! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members sxyryan Posted February 4, 2010 Members Share Posted February 4, 2010 ^^^^This. That actually sounds like an amazing rig, I'd love to try that out in person. I don't understand the load math very much though, so I would double check that before you try it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members guitarman3001 Posted February 4, 2010 Members Share Posted February 4, 2010 if I played big enough rooms and had a car big enough to transport them, I'd have every single one of my cabs going at the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a '75' 4001 All I need is another bass cab and that Rick-o-sound cable, and it's on. Someone needs to hurry the hell up and make a Bass Ebow!
