Are they wired series or parallel?  I have a 2x12 8 ohm cab and I have an 8 ohm 15" that I don't have a cab for yet.  If parallel I would choose 4 ohm and series I would choose 16 ohm but how is the 5E3 wired?

Parallel. If you have an 8 ohm load plugged into both jacks select 4 ohms.

Thank you Zeeman!  I have got to get the 15" in a cab.  I'm looking forward to a 5E3 wall of sound.  Grin

That should sound huge. I've been running a single celestion blue and a vintage 30 the same way. It's an odd but wonderful mix. Would love to hear your thoughts on the sound with that 15 when you get it all going.

Will do Zeeman.  I ordered the cab from weber today.  I am a mark for weber speakers.  The 2x12 has a blue dog and a silver bell with beam blockers.  We shall see how the 15A150-O blends in.

I also run Weber blue and silvers in an open back RME heirloom cab. KILLER.
I use that cab with a JTM45, an 18 watt lead channel clone and on occasion the 5E3 (in a Weber tweed cab). Can't say enough about Weber. Once I convert the 5E3 to 6L6's (KT66'S) ,via Mercury Magnetics, that 4 Ohm combination is gonna be SICK, as will be the 15A150 (great speaker btw),
