Hi everyone!

I've got a Blackhawk HP 8 ohm speaker here. It's really awesome!!

I wanted to use it in a 2x12 cab. I know that a parallel-wiring with another 8 ohm Blackhawk results in 4 ohm total impedance.

The serial wiring results in 16 ohm.

My tube-amp has switchable outputs 4/8/16 ohm (50 watts).

My questions are: Are there any tonal differences between a parallel and serial wiring?

And: Is it possible to mix a HP Blackhawk with a 50 watt Blackhawk (same impedance of course)?

Thanks!
