Hey

I did exactly that with my 1996 American Deville and the Hot Rod Deluxe 1x12 (8 ohms) cab and it works just fine. An added bonus is that by getting your open back 4x10 up off the ground (on top of the closed back 1x12), its seeems to improve the sound a bit. It looks pretty cool too!

Regards,
Rob

Does the amp change in its output levels because you are making the amp pump 30 watts to the cabinet and 30 to the amp itself. Instead of 60 the just the 4 speakers

I find that the volume knob is a bit less sensitive (that is you can get to 3 without going deaf), but it is not a huge difference in output levels. You are still pushing 60 watts (if you dare!!)

Given the addition of the 1x12, the frequency response is a bit different, at least to my ears, so I did need to play around with the EQ a bit to get it the way I wanted it. Now I plan to change tubes and start the experiment all over again!
