Can I buy 2 of these and run them throught a 400watt head 4 ohm?

No, these are 16 ohm speakers rated at about 30 watts, you would burn the voice coils out!

I think in principle you could, but I don't think the speakers could handle the power you are talking about. I bought this for the cab, to put an older Fane in for my Hiwatt, ('73 DR 501), an it sounds unbelievably good, ie. the cab is actually fairly well constructed. The speaker that comes with it is not!

James these cabs are only rated for 30 watts each so I don't think running a 400 watt head threw them would work very well but I am not positive.

According to my buddy, who lives and breathes guitar and gear, the answer is a massive "no." Apparently they aren't designed to handle past 30W of power (60W if running two in series). I wouldn't recommend trying it.

I guess u could as long as your amp is 4 ohm stable per channel, i'd go ahead and do it

Jonathan, here is some information that might help320W @ 8 Ohms480W @ 4 Ohms700W or 480W Amp Only:¼" speaker outputjacks. Impedances Lower than 4 Ohms should not beused. Higher impedances such as 8 Ohms, 16 Ohms,or No Load are acceptable. One 4 Ohm, one 8 Ohm,or two 8 Ohm cabinets are okay. One 4 Ohm and one8 Ohm together is not recommended. The internalspeakers equal an 8 Ohm load. No damage willresult from operating the amplifier with the speakersdisconnected.

Many will work, you can run it bridged in 4 ohms i believe. Look up the manual from there site

Sure, you'll want to wire them differently depending on the specs. If they're 2ohm speakers you'll want to wire them in series so they have 4 ohms of resistance. If they're 4 or 8 ohm you'll want to wire them in parallel for a 2 or 4 ohm resistance.

No way ! U need 300w per channel at 8 ohm to drive these beasts , unless u don't wanna use their full capacity . U can get preamp + amplifier (cerwin cv1800)... Not a receiver for these !

Higher ohms are always compatible. As long as you stay above 2 per channel or 4 bridged you'll be fine with this amp.

If u have 2 subs DVC 4 ohm each. Hook them up into 1 ohm parallel connections and you're all set! have fun!

If your subs are 4 ohm, then yes you can wire them in parallel to make a 2 ohm load. You should get roughly 450 to 500 watts per sub. Keep the bass boost off and the gains turned down and your good to go.

I don't remember if this amp is rated to 2 ohms. If it's not you'll cook it not matter how many fans you put in there. To answer your power questions, 2 ohms puts out about double the power compared to 4 ohms if I'm not mistaking. Also you need to make sure the speaker can run at 2 ohms. In short if your stuff is rated at 2 ohms and the amp can go down that low then you'll be happy. If nothing is rated for 2 ohms you'll be unhappy real fast.

If u can get it in 8ohms yes, if not u would have to run two in series. Home stereos are usually 8ohm loads per channel

I ran 1ohm with 2 of these cause they can be dropped to 2 ohms a piece when running in sequence then I sequenced both sub's together to get 1 ohm so if you have two then yes

Depend what you are hooking up to this amp make sure your in the right ohm load if not it's best to get 2 amps like this
1441434
No sorry I cannot answer that question, I will tell you that you will not be disappointed with there performance, I drive 2 of them with the pyle hybrid 3000 watt amp, which actually put out about 500 watts at 4 ohms, and the sound great, actually the amp fall short of being able to deliver what they can handle
739994
Anything can be blown, judging on te name brand I your amp you should have enough for a couple of these, for best sound run them separate on the amplifier at 4 ohms
1461664
no. this amp will only push around 250 watts at 4ohm. It is over rated substantially. go with hifonics, best output for price.

Should work ok. Wire them in parallel to get a 2 ohm load and all will be well.
