Just so that I get this completely right and blow up my most treasured possession.

I have a AD30TC and a Sound City 4x12 Cabinet (16ohm). I'm a bit new to using a cab with a combo. In the back of my AD30TC I have the x2 speakers plugged into the 16ohm output, and x2 free 8ohm sockets.

Is this correct? If I move the combo speakers into on of the 8ohm sockets and plug the 4x12 into the other 8ohm socket is this right? If not, what should I do, I really don't want to damage either of them.

Thanks, hope you can help?

That should be correct: two speaker setups or cabinets- each must be a 16 ohm load and then you plug both into the two 8 ohm outputs.
