The physical fit is simple. They are designed to stack. How you drive them though is a different matter. Depending on the vintage these are either an 8 Ohm load or a 4 Ohm load to the amp. Each pair needs to be connected to the appropriate driver/controller box for it's impedance.
IOW, you need to run two sets of power amps, two controllers, and then two pairs of speakers. BTW, just adding more speakers to a stereo power amp (or two monos) won't make the system appreciably louder. All you are doing is diluting the power output of the amps between four speakers rather than two. More speakers, sure. But each one now receives half the power compared to running 1 pair.

Following on from the comments on a separate thread - I was interested to hear a few comments about the far less well famed SR1s. Having witnessed a pair of SR3s put out a staggeringly loud & full sound for their size, we picked up 4 S/H SR1s & an SRC1 controller to give us an ultra portable FOH & foldback setup (don't run bass & drums through the PA). It's a joy to be able to load the whole PA, amps mixer & stands in the back of an Astra hatchback. Certainly my experiences of 802s have been great in voice situations, but disappointing on many occaisions with music. The SR1s really do seem to cut it well by themselves with no sub.
And I do feel that their controller is a corking bit of kit. Those SR3s that impressed me so much have done over 10 years duty in a church with plenty of level abuse and still run sweet as a nut. Anyone know why Celestion seem to be dropping these with no real replacement, or have they just not been able to get buyin to the non-standard market?
We have 20 SR-1's in our hire stock and we've found them excellent for the samller stuff. We also use a double stacked pair on top of a 2x 15' Sub pair side for a small band/DJ system and that too works well. However we have the older SRC-1 controllers which do the speaker sensing and when using it driving into 4 Ohms (I.e.
Pair per side) it tends to shut down a little early. We tend to use an XTA DP-224 to control the larger SR-1 systems because of this. The problem we've had in the past with 802's is their very wide and un-predictable dispersion pattern, especially a problem when using radio mics when speaker positioning isn't ideal. We re-did an installation that had 802's & 301's in it, the budget didn't stretch to new speakers on the re-fit. For various reasons we sacked the 802 controller, but the EQ we had to program into the digital processor we were using to make them sound right was scary!

One thing to note with the SR1s is that the older SR1s are 250W and while the new ones are 350w the output is 3db less (or was last time I looked).
