    Just had a look at these and they could be just right, I have 4 outputs on my amp (2 x Jack & 2 x Speakon) so these are looking promising

    I only tend to do small - medium venues so don't need a power house speaker system....although I have got a large hall in January and I know my speakers I have now are not up for the job.
    The reason I asked "why?" was to understand why you thought that "2 x 400w" speakers would be more suitable than the "2 x 200w" speakers you already have. They may not be as loud as what you already have.

    Also, I would never recommend speakers to match an amp. Match the amp to the speakers.

    Best way would be to 'daisy chain' them (Don't know the correct phrase) Amp to speaker, then speaker to second speaker. Repeat for other side. Will also give you greater spread for large stages.

    You need to start looking into ohms then
    Eg 2 x 8 ohm speakers linked = 4 ohm load.
    If you dont understand it you will fry your amp

    4 ohm is no problem for the amp mentioned (or for most amps I believe).
