I couldn't have done better. Her only flaw was she thought I was cool.

I'm thinking the tweeter would be particularly useful when you're streaming full range audio.
You seem pretty cool to me as well Dav and I didnt even marry ya...your not my flavour in any case loll
Phil Jones Bass makes a good pair of headphones. AKG-240s are open-back, but the AKG-K553s are closed. I haven't needed anything more than these three.

Same here.
In the 200 combo, the tweeter can be set to OFF or -6dB. On the 115 cab, there'e a third setting for full ON.
I've been streaming Slacker's (now LiveXLive) Modern Blues channel through it (on the -6 dB setting) for a long time with no noticeable problems.
When I stream music through my Studio 40 using the speaker, the sound is not very good. If I plug in my headphones it gets much better. What's up with that?
Only time the tweeter is 'on', is on breaks playing CD's through the amp
It's an old TV stand until I get a pile of extension cabs. Also left by the previous tenant though. Gotta love a freebie with proper dimensions. Swivels too so I can point it precisely at the drummer.Is the stand a tiltback?
Dead 9v in your active IPhone?
Just got a reply back from Fender. As suspected there's no foreseeable complications from operating/storing a rumble combo on its side for extended periods of time. My 2.67ohm Stage 800, 2x10 cab, and 1x15 cab dream is about to become a reality!

The Aux/BT signals are both summed at the master volume stage (or post master if configured as such). The looper is implemented just before the MV stage (and is included in USB/Post or L/R LINE OUT), so no this won’t work. Aux/BT signals only present in speaker or HP.
That will move some air! Looking forward to a report and a pic!
Last week, I picked up a used Rumble 1x15 cabinet, to go with my 500 v.3 head.
At home and at a gig, I was underwhelmed by the sound-- to me, it didn't quite have the guts of my GK 210RBH or Neo 112II or Neo 212II cabinets.
I am familiar with single 15 cabinets-- I use an Ampeg Rocketbass combo quite a bit (especially for quick tear-downs at multi-band shows with FOH support), and I used to play through Music Man 1x15 cabs and homemade 1x15 Thiele cabs.
Anyway... after the gig, I got the most compliments I've gotten in recent memory.
As Kurt Vonnegut used to say, "And so it goes..."

How close to it were you? Mine[200c]sounds better 20'(longest cable)in front of it.Last week, I picked up a used Rumble 1x15 cabinet, to go with my 500 v.3 head.

Makes sense. Some of the lower frequency waves are 20' long.
You sure you had the vintage switch on?Last week, I picked up a used Rumble 1x15 cabinet, to go with my 500 v.3 head.

On a more serious note, is your GK stack closer to your ear level on stage? Might be part of the difference you're noticing, aside from a difference in general tone.
My neighbours reckon my 500C sound better down the end of our street.
This. This. This.
Walk around and away from your cabinet and notice how the sound changes. I’ve had nights where I thought the same thing and been told everyone else could hear me well.
At least for me, hearing a good sound is super important to my playing so sometimes I have to experiment a bit.
It was on the floor, about 2 inches behind my legs. 
Vintage and bright switches on, low mids at 11:00, the others at noon, no overdrive, gain and master at 9:00.
P-Bass with DR Pure Blues strings, 45-105, Hearos earplugs, a cheap 6-foot guitar cable and a Planet Waves strap. Black Converse hi-tops, a gray Corolla parked outside, and coffee for breakfast.

But you're sure you had the vintage switch on...
