Evening All,
I'd appreciate a little help with this one please?
I have a Numark Dimension 4 running (412wrms/channel) running into a pair of KAM Z1504s (250wrms each).
I also have a Gemini X-03 which is kept now more as a spare. I bought the Numark new as opposed to the x03 second hand when I first started out.
As I am paranoid of blowing something with the first combo (as I guess more watts at the amp rather than the speaker is not a good thing), I was thinking of getting a single bass cab and running it off the Gemini as the possible minimal cost option of having a bit more oomph without damaging anything.
Firstly, does this sound like a reasonable thing to do.? If so and I daisy chain the Gemini (for the bass) from the Numark (running the full range), is there anything I need to be careful of?
I have had one or two gigs whereby people have asked to turn the sound up a bit which I have done but have not been sure how much legroom I've had to play with and had to keep fingers crossed.
That said I seem to hear of many people playing gigs with 250w speaker capacity, so am I being too cautious?
Any help most welcome.
cheers
Steve
