Would this be possible/safe?

Running two amp heads to one 4x12 cab? If so, how would I connect it?

Yes, it can be done easily. Just pay the price...

While I was looking at that link, my wife asked me what I was looking at.

"A head switcher," I answered.

Man, she sure was happy about that.

Re: Would this be possible/safe?

Hey, thanks Cleveland! I've been looking for something like that for awhile now. It does lead me to another question though: I know it's bad to have a tube head on and not have it connected to a load (cabinet, etc) but what about solid state heads? Is it harmful to have them on and not connected? My situation is that I use a tube head for gain and a solid state head for cleans...I noticed that the Axcess switcher tells you not to run solid state heads. [img]images/icons/frown.gif[/img]

Re: Would this be possible/safe?

That's right, but it also said it protects the unswitched tube head and protects both heads during switching, so I read that to mean it has some type of load resistor that takes the load from the unswitched head.

Depending how much the head switcher costs, might be cheaper to get another 4x12 cab and a simple A/B switch. You may have to anyway if you're wedded to the SS head for clean.
