Rumble 500 Combo Cab Suggestions

[Griendrr]

Recently been turned on to the rumble in several sizes and got a new 500 combo last weekend. I'm already trying to find time to research, acquire a good cab match.

I'd rather stay in the used market if possible, Be checking craigslist and FB Marketplace. Output jack says 8 ohm 250 Watt. Just for the price factor of course. Not against buying new if what I end up wanting isn't readily available and/or holding high values..

Am I right to assume similar wattage rating would be a better match ? (if it's 250 minimum an 800 watt cab would not be driven the same as a 400 watt cab)

Anyone have favorites ? Is it usually better to mix n match ? (2X10 in Combo, 1X15 in cab etc)

I have little experience in this area. Up until now it's just been smaller practice amps.

Thanks

The club aside, i have the 500 combo and got the Fender 1x15 cabinet to go along with it and it sounds glorious! I thought the 2x10s sounded great, but with the 15 added it just sounds so much fuller that when i use just the combo now it sounds like it’s missing something.

I could see that, seems logical, the 15 and 10s are giving you the best of both , plus pushing more power I could definitely see it missing something after having the 15 hooked up. I really do like the match of the Rumble cabs.
