Can't possibly sound good with those china v30!
For 212 cabs that are not truly oversized the china v30 is actually better IMO. They have a slightly more open spectrum, or maybe just less in the middle, but that seems to help a normal size 212 form sounding so stuffy. Obviously we can adjust the amp's controls to compensate for various cabs, but if you play 412s usually and go to a single 212 the stuffier tone is obvious.
edit; If you want a v30 212 to sound more like or even better than a v30 412, combine a v30 with a k100 in a 212.
For a practice (alone) lower volume cab I've always wanted a vertical 212 with a GB on bottom and a t75 on top.Last edited by dave74; 08-27-2022, 04:29 AM.

Okay but we all need to space out our purchase times so they don’t figure they’ve cornered the market or they won’t stay $300 for long!

I would assume it is a parallel jack so weird that they call it "through' since the jacks are wired the same. Would be easy to check with a meter, but I'm assuming you don't have one? Or just take the back off and take a picture of it.

My home-build 1x12 has a cab-thru/out that maintains the impedance (parallel) so one of us could tell you just by seeing how it’s wired up or from a schematic.
I’m tempted to get one as it’s literally cheaper than buying 2 V30s and if I don’t like the cabinet I can put them in one of my Marshall cabs. Makes me wonder if they’re selling them at a loss.

Yep; it's for daisychaining two cabs from one output.
The question is whether it puts the two cabs in series or in parallel. Most likely it'd be parallel.
Try plugging a cable into the Through jack for a second while playing at low volume.
If you still get sound, it's parallel. If your cab cuts out, it's wired for series.
(Don't continue run your amp without sound; amps need a speaker load.)
If it's parallel, adding another 8 Ohm cab would give a 4 Ohm load as dave74 said.
If it's series, adding another 8 Ohm cab would give a 16 Ohm load.

The through should just be an outout. You can run another 8ohm cab from it from a single 4ohm amp output. (daisy-chained)
You also could run each cab from two separate 4ohm amp outputs. Just depends on how you want to run your cabling, and what the amp has for outputs.

Man, I gotta hear the verdict on a 300 dollar V30 cab
-most v30 twin cabs are 600-900 dollars
Break that thing in and report back!
