Fender Rumble Club

I honestly am tempted to follow this approach when it comes to increasing my rig, one last question if you don't mind! Do you use the tweeters and do you run both volumes equally? Are you basically duplicating one amps flat tone and making a monster rig? Haha
 
They are set the same with both tweeters on, the only exception is the overdrive. I have them set a little different flow each other. It really makes a great sound when I need it. My whole thing was I had one and loved it but wanted a fuller sound and get into a 410. And I thought why sell what I already love and have to buy a new head and cab. When I could just double it and I couldn't think of a reason not to. Then went to gc and took my bass and pedal. They let me try it out and everyone was impressed. Bought the second one that day.

That's great, that's the exact same thought I have! I'm definitely going to highly consider this option when I need a bit more oomph! Thanks for your time!
 
Im looking into purchasing a fender rumble 150 combo amp. Would this be good enough for a mid sized gig?

Through my experience of playing a 150 rumble through a 410 cabinet at a rehearsal studio and turning it up 3/4 I think you'd struggle unless you were being DI'd through the PA. if your budget extends then I'd definitely recommend the rumble 350 combo it's very loud and sounds great
 
Of course you may join, Linnin! You have number 58 =)
I'm impressed with the volume on my Rumble too. Usually my playing is done in our basement and I don't think it's ever been past the second dot which was plenty loud!

Argo362, I didn't give you a number yet, very sorry about that. You have 57.

How's she sound?

Tabdog

Same as Stock driver sound , BUT it LOUDER & More Clear & Solid LOW than Stock china-made driver. Hi-mid & treble just same for my ear.

something need to mention is, volume at between 10~11 o'clock position now, as loud as stock driver volume set at 12 o'clock before.

At 3 o'clock it REALLY SHAKING LOUD with distorsion free & No Rattle.

i have done lining for my Rumble 75 which suggest by Mr Linnin.
but, sorry i forget to take picture.
I use polyfil + cotton wool.
Lot people mention that cotton wool make the Cab sound Dry & Dead from others forum.
So, i make a try combination polyfil + cotton wool.
I line the top,upper wall & lower wall with base polyfil layer ,cover by cotton wool as front layer. The both thickness around 2in. Do nothing with bottom side. I stable it.
For the left & right wall, i staple the double layer cotton wool with size 5in x 10in.

Sound..?
Still Rumble 75 sound, but the low-mid & bass become a bit Solid & Focus than before.
The Airly-feel tone from my CV 60 P become less & the treble reduce with right amount.
I think cotton wool is a right choice for this Bed-Room bass combo, it dint sound dry & dead like what genius said.

Really Happy with it.
