When running two 8ohm cabinets were do i plug them into my so cal head , also when running just one 8ohm cabinet were do i plug that one into my head?

Check continuity on all cables, try a different cabinet with the head and a different head with the cabinet and the bass with a different rig to see which part of the chain isn't working, make sure the volume controls are turned up on both the amp and bass. Once the problem is narrowed down it will be easier to advise you.

The Eden has a thermostatically controlled fan, my first thought is to clean the fan and airways and make sure it is working properly. This relates to some heat problems on solid state stuff. If they get too hot, some shut off for protection, the fan should automatically speed up on this model to compensate. When volume is low watch the fan. Also, make sure the impedance switch is set properly. I've very rarely seen any reason to use 2ohms settings. The only way to run that is with 2 4ohm cabinets in parallel. If they are in series it would become 8ohm. Any other way will make the amp get too hot on 2 ohm setting. Most cabs are 4, 8, and 16.

The Ohms for individual speakers is measuring the impedence of that speaker and NOT the pure resistance. Speakers are usually 4hom or 8 ohm impedence, but you can get outside those figures occassionally. When you talk of "Cab" are you talking of a "Speaker Cabinet"? What is it you're trying to achieve? Connecting the wrong impedence speaker to a device can do damage to that device or sometimes even to the speaker itself. May I suggest you say something like "I want to connect the speakers from my [Brand Name and Model] stereo sytem to my [Brand Name and Model] Ipod thingy." If this is the case, then you might do some damage to your equipment.

faulty speaker cable?

As long as the impedance of the speakers do NOT go below the rating of the amp you can connect them without worry Your amp would drive two 8 ohm speakers. Using the 16 ohm speaker it will only draw half the current and only accept half the power that one of the 8 ohm outputs can deliver.

Check to see the phasing of the two cabinets and the cable. Take a 9 volt battery and touch it to the end of a cable that is plugged into the cabinet. The + of the battery has to be on the tip, and the - to the sleeve. See If the speakers move outward. Check each cabinet if they do then they ae in phase. Now try it with the second cable the results should be the same. If not and they move in the opposite direction then that cable is wired wrong. If one of the cabinets move in the opposite direction than the cabinet is wired wrong. You can also run one cabinet at a time if they sound louder by them selves that should also tell you that something is out of phase.

the second jack is usually for a second cabinet.

here's a link to the manual. to be sure.

if it has effects on it, you may require two cabinets for the stereo effects. in the truest sense of stereo is what i mean.

Use a SPEAKER RATED cable which will have good quality 1/4 inch jacks. Go from a speaker out on the head to one of the jacks provided on the speaker cabinet. NOTE: some newer speaker cabinets use SPEAKON connectors and if those are provided, they are more secure than 1/4 inch plugs/jacks.

PLEASE loop the speaker cables through a handle of the cabinet at each end to avoid them being yanked out while hot as the amplifier can be damaged if it happens.

OBSERVE the maximum load. If the amp says 4 ohms minimum, put no more than two 8 ohm cabinets on the amp as two 8 ohms parallel to 4 ohms.

DO NOT use an instrument cable.

Go to www.peavey.com/asstes/literature/specs/005584220_3.pdf. Apparently the 410 TVX can be used in 4ohm or ohm configurations just don't drop below 4 ohms and make sure your amp has the minimum required impedence. Hope this helps.

Weather of not you can use this speaker as an extension cab depends on a number of things. First, what amp are you planning you use for it? What is the minimum resistance for this amp (2ohm or 4 ohm probably). Second, what is the primary cab you are using ans what is the resistance on that? (2ohm, 4ohm or 8ohm).

Is there just one speaker in you proposed extension cab? The goal is to have all the speakers wired in parallel without lowering the resistance to a point that will damage the head. So if your amps minimum resistance is 4ohm then your cabs will have to both be 8ohm, running in parallel the overall resistance will be 4ohm.
