Set up advice for a small timer

does adding an extra cabinet make you any louder, even though you're still at the same power output?

Yes - most amps are designed to deliver their full power into a 4Ohm load. Most cabinets (and combo speakers) are 8Ohm. It is only when you add an extension cabinet that the amp has a 4Ohm load (2 x 8 in parallel) and thus able to deliver the full beans.

That apparently is how the Rumble 200 and 500 work.

The 200 is actually 140w @ 8 ohms by itself. Add an external speak and it becomes 200w @ 4 ohms. The 500 is 350w by itself.
