I finished building a two-stroke amp from the book The Guitar Amp Handbook.
Its been a couple of months of running this thing through my combo speaker and I think it is going to be a keeper.
So this week I started building a head box and 2x10 cab. It has been going smoothly...but I've got a question about the cab wiring. I want to be able to use either speaker individually as their own 8 ohm load and also together parallel as a 4 ohm load.
I was thinking of wiring each speaker up to a switching jack and wiring the switching contacts together back to another jack, of course all negs would be wired together.
Just looking at it this will work. But is it a good idea?? all I have ever seen these contacts used for are paths to ground to silence the input of an amp when nothing is plugged in.
