I have an Ashdown MAG250H Head( 250w at 4ohm)on the back thier are 2 speaker outputs-----
My cabinet is a Ampeg SVT215(with 2x15") at 4ohms-
On the back of it Their is only one input going in to the cabinet-
My question is, should I get a "Y" connecter and hookup both of the out puts on the back of the head to the 1 input on the Cabinet?

Somebody please help me-thanks

Thank bass player-

The other speaker out is for an second cab. Your head is rated for a minimum load of 4ohms. The cab you're using is already providing a 4ohm load and evil things will happen to your amp if you add a second cab. The 2 speaker outs on your head were intended for 2 8ohm cabs.
