Can someone help….I have a Peavey Classic Chorus 212 amp. I like the sound but the speakers are finished. I also have a 4×12 Marshall cabinet. I want to play the Peavey thru the cabinet…is it possible? I tried attaching a patch cord from the amp out of the amp to the cabinnet but got nothing. I then pulled out the patch cord half way and got some sound, but it was very very quiet, even at 10. My questions is, are they comatible? Is it because I’m not using the right kind of patch cord (i used a guitar patch) or is the amp just underpowered? The specs of the cabinet are 75 watts RMS into 8 ohms, 2 12inch speakers. Can someone send me and answer, THX
