Micro Terror with 2 cabs (PPC112 + PPC212)

[Philazur]

Hi!
I am the proud owner of an Orange OR15 + PPC112 cab + PPC 212OB cab.

I recently bought a Micro terror, for it's portability. Great little beast.

I was wondering: Can I plug it to both the PPC112 and PPC212 at the same time? Do I just need to plug the Micro Terror into the PPC212 (1st jack), and then the PPC212 (2nd jack) into the PPC112 ??
If this can help, the Micro terror needs to be plugged in a 8 Ohms minimum cab (that's what is written at the back of the amp). Both the PP112 and PPC212 are 16 Ohm cabs.

Thanks for your help!

I think this will work: Micro Terror out --> cab1 in --> cab1 out --> cab2 in.

Since you are connecting them together by daisy chain you will get total 8ohm impedance which will of course work with MT.

Hi Mici and thanks for your reply!

I am still very confused....

I read everywhere that :
- Two 16 Ohms cabs in parallel = 8 Ohm amp output
- Two 16 Ohms cabs in series = 32 Ohm

Pluging my two 16 Ohms cabs in series (=daisy chain) would give 32 Ohm.

So I guess I cannnot plug my two 16 Ohms cabs in series to the 8 Ohm Micro Terror, as the cabs would need 4 times more Ohms than the amp is supposed to deliver....

But on the other hand, I usually play with one 16 Ohm cab in this 8 Ohm amp, and it works fine...! I am totally confused.

If anybody can help clarify that would be highly appretiated!!

Thanks!

Answered your question in the other topic, but yes you can.

No - daisy chaining is in parallel

Thanks for your help everyone,

Tried it this weekend, it all worked fine!! The sound is huge and and better balanced with both PPCs.

Pretty funny to see the small Micro Terror on top of the big stack!

Cheers!
