I have a 1971 3-15 with CTS speakers (all three speakers are 1377116). My amps are K100-1's. I was thinking about adding a jack plate to the back of the cab with 1/4" TRS switch jacks, maybe one for the top speaker and one for the middle speaker. The 3rd jack (the original) would connect the bottom speaker to the switch jacks (and thus the speakers) in parallel. If I only plug into the bottom jack, I have 5ohms (as original, all three 15"s). If into one of the other two, say the top, then I have 16ohm (like an original K100-15-1).. If I plug into the bottom jack and then plug an unconnected plug into one of the other two (rendering that speaker unconnected), I'd have 8ohm at the bottom jack.

I'd post a schematic of what I'm thinking if I had the post count for links..

anyone try anything like this?

I'd like to try different speaker combos but I don't want to take the back off the cab (45 screws?) ever again!
