I was thinking 8.Oooooooo! Now you need four more!
Well, they are a bit top-heavy sitting on the carpet and honestly I was just too lazy to hook them up stacked like that.They look very cool, but how can you not want to hear them???
They are in my living room and it's all cluttered up. I'm going to straighten it all up today and may go ahead and stack them again and see what they sound like.
It will be later this afternoon though.
Exactly, +8 = 1 dozen. The universe is in balance.Symmetry & Balance, ya know.
Not excellent pics by any means but gives Rumble owners an idea i guess. The top cover is the Rumble 500 Amp and bottom cover is the 115 Cab. I asked for a front zippered pocket on the amp cover for cables etc, plus the bottom velcro strap goes from the rear bottom, then underneath the unit to attach at front bottom.
Blurb taken from the Tuki website says.."Material is a durable 600 denier outer layer - tear, abrasion and water resistant 1/2" foam - thickest padded cover available on the market! Brushed polyester inner lining - soft against your gear Bag closures are either hook and loop or zipper."
Cost me Approx $200US for both. I am not associated with any business sponsorship dealerships at all, including Tuki Covers by the way..just saying. Thought you might like to see what they are like is all. I am really happy with them both.

Saturday, I had a pick-up trio gig on upright bass. I met for the guitarist for the first time as we went on stage. I took the Rumble 200 and this is what it sounded like. Bass and low mids at 1:00 / high mids and highs turned completely down. Pretty sure you won't be able to hear the bass on a tiny phone speaker, but you can with headphones or computer speakers. It really was a lot of fun!
Sounds amazingly natural to me!
Yes, that's what I thought too, I didn't get the impression that it was even amplified. RUMBLE RULES.
It pays that you can navigate the EQ possibilities which I am just beginning to explore.
It does sound like you are listening to an unamplified double bass violin. The radical tone settings were totally counter-intuitive compared to the tone of the bass. Hats off to @GregT!
I appreciate the nice responses. You could just feel the Rumble 200 filling the room. I turned down the highs trying to get an old-fashioned tone. I wanted it to sound like the old records. It was my first gig on upright ever. I had only taken it to one jam session before. I never knew it was going to be so much fun.
Very natural tone. You should publish this in the Rumble Tone Pool.
