Here is my question: What am I hearing out of my rig at that close distance? - I can really feel the sound waves coming out of the stack. I'm loving it.
The top of 15" driver is about 5 feet high. We're playing gigs on a crowded stage right now and I'm usually standing about 3-4 feet in front of my rig. There's no problem for me nor am I complaining I'm just trying to get a technical explanation of what I'm feeling from the sound of the stack.
And a bigup to all my Reggae bass playing Brothers and Sisters out there! |

and if you are right in front of the 15, you don't lose those high because of "beaming",
you would be right in the "beam"
I think OP scenario qualify as "right in front of"
however, I don't understand why or what the OP is asking
is there something that you think you shouldn't be hearing?
or is there something that you expect but can't hear?
