I have been playing on 2 k-100 pa heads to 2-4-12" pa columns using 1-right and 1-left
Great but i am down to 1 amp now(haven't got the other fixed yet) so the question is how do i use 4 columns with 2 outputs. Will a y-cable do the trick or am i is that too muck load. Haven't done anything yet but would rather find out if i am creating my more problems
Unfortunally you will have to wait until the output is fixed or look at some another Pa amps out jacks are hooked up or this will lead you to an out of blanced ohm load and bad problems. If you grow tired of do wiring problems. Give me an email and then I'll but the wiring headache. Good luck friend.

Hi, to continue to use 4 cabs, you will have to make a adapter to wire to pairs in series.The hot goes into the the tip of a 1/4 " jack the low side comes out and goes to the tip of the next cabs input jack, the low comes out. and that low and hot go to a male 1/4" plug. when you have done that to both pairs of cabs (2 on each side) you than plug them both into the amp the normal way.

Series-parallel combinations are acceptable however, the 4x12 columns are 8 ohm cabinets and you will end up with 8 ohms total with the 4 columns and the output will drop for the total combination to about 30 watts or so. That would be down from the 100 watts the 2 K100's would put out.

thanks for the help
i sprayed contact cleaner on pots,wiggled some componets and did not find anything put it back together and hasn't missed a lick.
i guess there was a bad connection
thanks again
