Two notes torpedo captor x

[dranoel]

I’m so interested in this captor x . My main concern is about my combo fender 59 reissue bassman 4x10. How can I use the captor X with this combo regarding the impedance of the bassman ? Wich one of the 8ohm and 16 ohm should I buy? Thanks

I think for that Bassman combo you would need to add a special adapter. Look up BMH Bassman Attenuator Harness.

Unless someone can offer you another way I think that is what you may have to do for any attenuator/loadbox with that combo.

Pretty sure those amps are wired for 2ohms.

You would get a Weber z matcher and just set that to two ohms on the amp side. Are you planning to connect the speakers to the captor x?

It seems a really good piece of gear for live and recording and also it’s a reasonable price!

Yes

Yes

Then neither is the answer to your 2nd question, unless you use an impedance matcher as blackba mentioned - then it doesn't matter which

I don’t want to use the bassman speakers with the captor x, i just need it for recording

The Weber z matcher will do great then. https://www.tedweber.com/z-matcher/
