... and if not, how about two 8 ohm cabs? Since the outputs are dedicated to 16, 8 and 4, it makes it a little more confusing. I assume you can tap one speaker from the 16 and one from the 8 out and drive two cabs. I'm guessing they may have to be two 8 ohm cabs though.
Anyone here know for sure? Thanks.

DO NOT run two cabs from two different taps simultaneously. You can run two 16 ohm cabs from the 8 ohm tap, no problem, or you could run two 8 ohm cabs from the 4 ohm tap (16 ohms + 16 ohms = an 8 ohm load; 8 ohms + 8 ohms = a 4 ohm load), but you'll need a Y cable (Pro Cables N Sound makes a great one). The Brakelite SA has two speaker outs, also, and can do the job of a Y cable.

I never thought of a Y cable but that makes it simple. Thanks.

Thanks,
I guess I didn't think of that. I have some spare switchcraft jacks, I may just build my own.

Or if you have an Airbrake maybe add a female jack to it. Much like the Brake-Lite with parallel outs. Or , seriously, just use some heavy gage speaker wire (lamp cord). Make the + go with the other +
then: (2) 16 ohms cabs plug into the 8 ohms output or (2) 8 ohms cabs = 4 ohms output
