Still on the hunt for JBLs so sticking with beyma CP800TIs at the moment. I quite like them.

Just a quick question, how have you wired your 215s, in parallel or series?

Ive been playing with the idea to wire my cabs in series (theyre parallel at the mo)

Each cab PD154 loaded (wired in series) would be 16r so a stack of 3 cabs linked (in parallel) the amp would see 4r and 4 cabs linked 2r etc.

This could make more use of what power i have available from my C-Audios

What do you think?
Invading an electrical system you have no clue about, seperating the conductors of a ring while you find your Screwfix screwdriver, wiring in something "your mate made", I fail to see the problem here

Why didnt you buy John's (robbo) martin HF2's? they would have been ideal for your system.

Some of my 215's are in parellel,others i have wired each driver individual,so each driver has its own input socket....gives you the option of either running them as 2x 8 ohm loads,or with a simple jumper lead,a 4ohm cabinet.
Be seeing you.

I wanted to but just a bit too far away for me to be travelling. they were up for 350 but it would cost another 100 in petrol to collect. for that money i could buy another beyma and some bullets.

I was thinking of wiring each driver individualy after speaking with alex in warwick but dont really want to chop up the rear access panels too much. have you got any pics of your access panels with the individual set up?

why not just wire driver 1 to pins 1+ and 1- and driver 2 to pins 2+ and 2-. You'd need four core cable but it makes the system more versatile.
me so horny, me love you long throw.
