Bass player has a hartke lh 500 head. It has two speaker outputs that say 8 Ohms next to each one. He just ordered a 4 X 10 cabinet that is 400Watts at 4 OHMS, and plans to plug this as well as an 18 inch speaker (wattage and ohms unknown but assumed to be 400Watts/8 OHMs) He says he is going to re-wire his new cabinet to be 8 OHMS and then be able to push enough power to each speaker cab. I think he is an idiot, I'm not saying that the speakers won't make any noise, I just don't believe what he is doing will be efficient. I told him that instead of dropping cash on shit that needs to be modified he should have done a little more planning and got what he needs. I don't really care that much because I'm sure that as long as he doesn't ruin his head or speakers he will be loud enough for me to hear him. I just irritates me that he is so half-cocked about his gear, plus he always seems to end up asking me about what he should do, after he has already bought shit. What are your thoughts.
