id like to get an extension cable so that I can put my super champ x2 combo on top of my bigger older cab/speaker.  Ohms are compatible, but the cable from the cab isn’t long enough to reach when I put the combo on top. 

I can find female male extension cables in the uk, but I like the idea of a lockable female, so that there is no risk of load coming off the amp (more feasible with a longer cable available to be snagged by something). 

Howver I can’t find a lockable one on the googlenet?  

Anyone have any any ideas why they not be avail in UK, or what they may actually be named / called ?

ta v m :)

    I bought two from designacable, one through eBay and one later off Amazon. The first one died within 6 months but the other is still going. I think they’re on here, @designacable is their username here.

    You might be surprised that ICBM suggests the use of a GUITAR  extension cable for speakers?

    But no, he is not in his dotage yet! Even for close to worse case use, 100W 4 Ohms a robust guitar cable is more than adequate (but maybe not a curly one!)

    MOST importantly, never use anything but the Nukey locking line jack socket for speaker extensions. All other brands are known to fail O/C with disastrous consequences to valve amplifiers.

    Er... actually I missed that! But I did search on '1/4 speaker cable extension'. Not enough coffee this morning :).

    But you're right, at this sort of power level (15W at 8 ohms), it's not a problem at all.
