Honestly, I thought you were joshing us!

I had done some rough calculations, and they didn’t add up[1]. But what does add up is your counting. I got 74 black stripes on my Rumble 100, and 65 on the one in the photo.
[1] In particular, 75 rows at 5 rows/inch is 15”, whereas the R100 grill is just over 17” high. But at 4.38 (mine seemed closer to 4 per inch than 5), that works out. Yes, I am a math geek.
TLDR; I agree with your conclusion.

See, I was told there'd be no math.:help:

All I did was turn the picture sideways and zoom in on a big computer screen to count the rows. Then I took the grill off my 100 and counted. Then I counted them both again, and then one more time. I'm certain the amp in the picture is a 40. I've been wrong about stuff before though.

Just had a first run with the band with my new 800c.
Wow, very impressed! My master volume wasn’t even at 10 o’clock and it punched so hard. Such an authoritative tone. Really clear and strong. OD sounded excellent. But the core, clean tone is so good. Not just loud, but wonderful in a band setting. I wanted to add another 2x10, and still do. Definitely not required for volume but it’d be an excellent 4x10 rig.
I was beyond happy and impressed from playing at home, but can’t believe how comfortably this handled playing against drums and a loud 40w 2x12 valve amp. I’ve actually played it louder at home, but in a big room it carried SO well I didn’t even need to test it.

I have a Stage 800 and adding a Rumble 210 cab just filled out the sound so much! Like you, I didn't need additional volume, but love how the amp sounds with four 10s.

A Rumble puts a smile on my face, too!

My GR Bass AT Cube 500 combo has a killer custom 8 ohm 12" driver being driven by 250 watts. GR Bass makes 2 AT Cube 112 cabs, a 350 watter and a 450 watter (more expensive and a little heavier). The 350 watt cab is all I need, but I can't find one anywhere. Do I need it? Hell, no. The combo by itself is CLEAN and LOUD! But if I find one, will I buy it? Hell, yeah.

EDIT: The only minor downside is that I'll have to hold my nose and resubscribe to TB. I have maxed out the number of characters permitted in the signature of a non-sub'd account.

TB is one of the few things online I will pay for. I get a lot of value out of the community here.
