I am looking to get a bigger amp.

Would I be able to use this head...

with this cab...

If so, what do I use to connect the two?

Re: Amp question.

Would a regular 1/4 inch guitar cable work?

Re: Amp question.

Standard guitar cables are shielded, and aren't used to having the amount of juice run through them that you get between a head and cab. I'm sure you'd get some sort of resistance there that would wind up damaging something. Definitely use speaker cable, the one at the link you provided should work fine.

Re: Amp question.

Make sure you purchase a "Speaker Cable". I've heard that if you try to use a regular instrument cable it can @#$% up your amp. :smack: So definately make sure you use a "Speaker Cable" only. :smack:
