SOURCE: Adding speakers to Fender Passpost 500 Amp system

If you add 8 ohm speakers in parallel then you would be running the amps into a 4 ohm load ...which will overheat and possibly damage them ...... if you wire series then the amps would be loaded to 16 ohms ...which would be ok ..but you will only develop 70 % of the total output power
IE a 100watt would be down to 70 watts
much better to add some seperate powered speakers

SOURCE: XR 8600 what color wire on the output connects

Peavey XR 8600?? Well it's 600w per ch. at 4 ohms/per side. So, whichever mode you use (Main, or Main/Monitor) you are best to have a 4 ohm total load for each channel of amplification. Ex.--Mains only, one 4ohm speaker per channel will give you 600W per side. Or two 8ohm speakers per channel in parallel, which makes a 4 ohm total load.

Main/Monitor mode---treat it the same way. one 4ohm, or two 8 ohms parallel. per channel.

Your best situation is to have a 4 ohm total load for each channel of amplification to get your 600W.

Parallel-- 8ohms each / 2 speakers = 4 ohm

SOURCE: We have the XR

It can be bad or loose wire or cut in between the wires causing this.But to confirm this ,try connecting the first speaker to +2/-2 and connect second speaker to +1/-1 and see if both speakers are working or problem is same as before.If both speakers are working then it was loose connection some where and it sorted out.If the problem is same as before then its loose or bad wire causing this.The internal wall wiring will need replacement or will need external wire connections.--------Get this checked.This will help.Keep updated.Thanks.Helpmech.

SOURCE: I have a budda superdrive

You best rewire the cabinet to put the two speakers in series. Wire one speaker plus to minus of the other and bring the other lead, one from each speaker to your jack on the cabinet. The amp output impedance is what is set on the switch... for two 8 ohm speakers you would use both jacks to the two speakers BUT ssince you have 4 ohm speakers the ONLY option is for two in series and set the switch to 8 ohms. The amp is ONLY 30 Watts so don't expect too much sound output... You should get a nice CLEAN sound at a reasonable level. If you drive the amp too hard it will clip and you will get garbage.

Loaded with 2-10" scorpions(8ohm)each, and a 18" black widow (?ohm)...can i load a 15" black widow(8ohm)using the same crossover Part# 90890170

I would assume that the 18" was a 4 ohm if the two 10" were 8 each. Though it might work in a pinch, the crossover point would be different and the balance between the speakers would probably be different as well. It's suggest calling Peasvey Customer Service to get the best answer. Here is their link-

How to replacea bass driver in mackie thump 15a

"How to replace bass driver in mackie thump 15a".
Did you mean,disassembly the speaker enclosure?
Just remove the 16 screws at the rear cabinet, using a screwdriver.
Then remove the 4 screws that secure the speaker, using the hex key. Is the bass driver blown up / broke?

410 bass cab into 210

What kind of problem are you having with this, I assume impedance matching. 2 speakers in parallel cut impedance in half. ex. 2 x 8ohm in parallel equal 4 ohm. IF the same speakers are in series, they double impedance, ex. 2 x 8ohm in series equal 16 ohm. Now matching 2sp and 2 sp, both pairs SHOULD be wired the same and the removal of 2 (dep on config) usually would be treated as 1 ?ohm circuit that equal the other ?ohm circuit. AFTER the removal of 1 leg, the impedance could double or half, depending on configuration.

Somehow have managed to remove wires from drivers (while trouble shooting svt 410 hlf cab) while not labeling them properly for reinstall. so far have not been able to locate a wiring diagram for inside...

Most schematics won't even have any colors listed... so let us have you try this:

Find a system ground someplace like the sleeve of a 1/4 inch jack... Using an ohmmeter check for continuity to the available wires that are disconnected. ASSUME that those showing a low resistance will go to the "-" terminals of the drivers. If you have say a black and red... expect that the black will be one of the grounds... often the red then will be the (+) of the woofer. If you have whites and yellow... OFten the white will also have continuity to ground and be the (-) for the tweeter and the yellow then to the (+). Now since your speaker has 4 woofers we need to be careful to wire then correctly to get the 4 ohm impedance of the cab. IF each woofer is 4 ohms impedance, then we need to wire them in series-parallel. The shell of input 1.4 inch jack will likely go to black wires... two of the speakers will have their (-) terminals connected to these. The tip of the 1/4 inch jack will probably connect to one or more red wires. These will connect to the (+) terminals of the OTHER TWO woofers. Next one of the available (-) with no connections will tie to the (+) terminal of one of the first two woofers. SImilarly the remaining (-) terminal of one of the woofers will tie to the last (+) terminal that is vacant. Note the + of the horn will tie probably to the High level pot and this will tie to the crossover someway.
Here is a site with general schematics.

I just bought an 800RB (been WANTING one for DECADES, finally put "cash-on-hand" together with "the SWEET one came along"). I want to know if the speaker jacks for the 300-watt amp are...

Here is the schematic AND everything you need to know about the speakers:

http://elektrotanya.com/gallien-krueger_800rb_sm.pdf/download.html

Scroll down to "Get Manual" on the site and click on it to download. It appears that the MINIMUM impedance on the trebel upper set is 8 ohms and MINIMU on the woofer is 4 ohms at the jack in each case.

Not really a problem want to know if I could add a extention speaker to the fender rumble 100 combo it has not ext. speaker out looking to add two 10 inch and if so how?

Hi there. If 10" speakers are 8 or 16 ohm, parallel them. If they are 4 ohm, series them. if "External speaker" output is rated down to 4 ohm. If no external speaker jack, you'll have to tap into existing speaker jack with a "Y". Check the minimum ohm load for the amp.
Thanks

I have a set of peavey scorpion sp5xt's one works fine but if i plug into the other one ,in full range, only the horn works,

Horn and speaker combo cabinets have an electronic component called a "crossover". The horn and speaker both work off different electrical signal frequencies. If you can take off the back, or get inside by pulling the speaker, check for a small circuit board mounted inside the box or on the speaker or horn. Check for a broken wire or loose connection of the crimp connectors.

A common problem with speakers, often the cone, or paper part of the speaker will come un-glued or separated from the magnet "voice coil". This happens when played too loud, when it's commected to the wrong impedance, or if the signal was shorted and "overdriven" (usually sounds like an awful buzz that's really loud).

Always make sure your output impedance matches the impedance of the speaker. Most auto stereos are 4 Ohms. Older home stereos are typically 8 Ohms. Musical PA gear varies between 4, 8, and 16 Ohms. Peavey gear is typicall 4 Ohms, but some older models are different. The Ohm rating is the amount of the resistance in the circuit. If your speaker is 4 Ohms and you plug it into an 8 Ohm circuit, you can destroy the speaker and sometimes the crossover circuit board.

Good Luck.
