Impedance switching

[MojoMonster]

So I built a 2Stroke head from the Weber kit about 4 years ago now and it has the dual output with 4 ohm and 8 ohm taps which I run into either a single 212 or dual 212s.

What I’m wondering is if its possible to wire this thing up with a 16 ohm tap as well?
I’d like to hook up a 112 cabinet with one of the extra 16 ohm V30’s I have.

Also, I posted this request elsewhere, but has anyone ever wired the 2Stroke up to be able to switch between SS and tube rectifier?

Thanks

No reason a 16ohm tap would not work if your OT has that tap as an option.
Use a 3 position rotary switch instead of the DPDT switch spec-ed in the original layout and you’re good to go with 4,8,16 ohm outputs. Antique Electronic Supply has a switch, I think it’s the P-H600 switch.

The switchable rectifier circuit is posted here on the TAN site in my 2Stroke photo folder. Works great in the 2Stroke.
