Upgraded to the 500 v3 combo after initially playing the 40w combo. I am absolutely in love with the sound these things put out. Paired it with an Orange OBC115, and it freakin' THUMPS! Took just the combo on tour, and it was a faithful servant. Even kept up nicely with a drumkit and a half-stack!

Very cool...I have the 500C as well, but never needed to pair ir with my matching 210 cab yet. Wondering why you decided to lay it on it's side? Because of the ports?
Wow @ubernator! You really got hit hard.That sucks totally. I hope they catch the thief.
Glad you still have your bass and Rumble 200 combo. Finding a cab that will match up well that isn't a Rumble 115 or 112 is a total crap shoot. You just have to try them out at volume and listen for yourself. If you have any credit at all, try one of major e-tailers that have 0% interest payment plans. Better to pay $50 for 6 months for a brand new cabinet that you know will be a solid sonic match.
Best of luck to you in your future.
They never even took the report seriously, it happened "on the road" so to speak. Likely the local police was in on the fencing, its long gone, happened beginning of sept, a long story I won't go into. With a $100 budget, nothing new exists so it is down to craigslist. And no reply to my $90-100 offer... Figures.
I might swing by a GC and see if they have anything used.
Crap, b115neo is MDF and over 50lbs...
I'm just going to keep watching, hopefully score an old swr again if the right price shows up. I was about to pick up one or 2 wm210's for $75 and/or $100, but like gandalf said, "I was delayed". It was a lot worse than just getting ripped off, I was separated from my vehicle in a very unfriendly city far from home, and ended up in the dungeon over misunderstood " words ", more than long enough for the 30 day pawn holds to expire. I swear it was a set up and the police are likely as guilty as the locals who " separated " me from my stalled vehicle, or the tow yard that the cop told me was just as suspect. They have ways to screw you over out where I had the misfortune of ending up. It was just like out of a movie.

I just liked the aesthetics of it that way; looks more pleasing to the eye. The Orange is side-ported, which looks wonky to me if the combo stands vertically.

So, I am keeping the Rumble 200c at church and the Carvin MB10 at home. I'm thinking of getting the Carvin 115MBE ($195) for live mic, or......whatever. I could use the Carvin and the 200 together I suppose, but that would mean schlepping an amp Sunday morning.
Sorry for the Carvin redirect, but youz guyz are the ones that will "know".

I wonder if it would be better to match up the ports as the Rumble is bottom ported IIRC. Would that be better for the sound?
Ideally the only thing that comes out (and goes into) your ports is air. Not sound. All your sound should becoming from the surface of your woofer's cone. This is the reason proper cabinet design and acoustic lining is so important.
Ok. The Super Bassman arrived!
I know.. right! I just got done testing it.. there is a difference to it than any other amp that I have used in the last year.. my most recent amp acquisition was the Mesa D800.. that amp is a lot darker compared to the SB 300. But I have a feeling that the SB 300 is going to do better on the stage..
Good Lord Almighty!!! drool
That looks GREAT!
