Vox AC30 Head with two cabs?
« on: March 19, 2022, 10:00:55 AM »
SO i have scoured the internet for some info on this, but I have been unsuccessful.  :omg: :omg: :omg: :omg:

I am currently saving for my dream amp. It is a Vox AC30 head and 2x12 matching cab. What I want to know is if I can hook two cabs to make it a full stack? There are two cab outs on the head, so it makes sense. I know AC30s are prone to overheating, so perhaps that is why no one does this.

I was just wondering because it seems like it would be fun to have the option of a full stack Vox sitting behind you on a stage. Ideally, I would have the top cab without the back and probably replace the speakers with something else. Or go with a cab from another brand.

Go to page 10 of the official manual:
https://voxamps.com/product/ac30-custom-head/#owners-manual-top

It appears you can (and I would have thought so). The question is more why you would want that, but that could be a matter of preference. I have gigged with a 4x12 and it’s a pain in the ass to bring along and it doesn’t add anything a 1x12 can do. At home I use a 1x12, headphones out or a portable amp.
Hey dude slow the fuck down so we can finish together at the same time.  :biggrin:

It is honestly most for the looks. I think it would also be cool to have one with the back on and the other with the back off. I honestly might just build my own 4x12 cab with two inputs. The top two speakers would be something like the Alnico Blues, and the bottom would most likely be Greenbacks.
