MT15 ohm question

[mixy]

Just got the MT15 and it sounds amazing going to my 8ohm Randall rg212 cabinet. My question, is there any way I can connect another of these 8ohm cabinets? Or do I have to save and buy an entire other amp to have 2 8ohm cabinets running?

Unfortunately the MT15 will only support 8 or 16 ohm loads. Adding a second cab using the existing jacks will result in a 4 ohm load (two 8 ohm cabs in parallel).

If you could find a way to wire a them in series - Mesa makes a “series box” that will let you run them that way for a 16 ohm total. They appear to be pretty cheap.

Just as andy said, but I suggest to open the cab and rewire them and you will have a mono 16ohm cab with two 12ers. It doesn't get any easier, you have tons of pictures on the net that show how that is supposed to look like and you have all the tools already at your home. Of course if the cab has a simple wiring scheme, I do not know ... maybe it doesn't.
