I am looking into buying an inexpensive amplifier on the 300-350 euros range for practise and home recording. i am torn between these three models. I mainly play metal and prefer a clean tone but some versatility would be appreciated. I currently own a 4 string p bass and 5 string fretless bass with soapbar pickups, will any of these reproduce the B string adequately? Which one do you prefer and why?

Thanks in advance
 
Rumble 100 vs hartke HD150
12 driver vs 15 driver
Boxy tone vs warmth clean modern tone.

If you seriously prefer Rumble amp, just go with R200 or R500 combo.
If you looking for clean tone , sure Hartke Hd 150 are great choice, following the KB12,KB15 and HD500.
If you looking for vary classic bass tone from warmth clean to dirty fuzz , try the Tech21 200 bass combo.

I own Rumble 200 combo in past, later get the KB15 and currently absolutely love the Tech21 amp system.
