My practice space is awash in a sea of buzz, not from the amp itself but mostly from the closet doors in the room. The amp is sitting on carpet but I’m wondering if raising it up off the ground will alleviate this somewhat. Otherwise I’ll have to relocate to my cold ass basement. Thoughts?
Raising the amp will definitely help. Getting it off the carpet is a MUST!
This is the one I have BTW
I put the amp on a milk crate to see if it made a difference and it didn’t really, I think this is just a very buzzy room unfortunately…
You should consider adding some padding to the closet doors, some thin felt strips maybe.
Is it a buzzing sound that somewhat resembles vibration? Yes, it could be the closet doors. As a test, try playing with the doors open and see what happens. I had a similar experience with a cabinet door in my music room and that’s how I isolated it.
If the door is rattling against the frame just use a cheap self adhesive door mute. They’re the things you find on your kitchen cabinets to stop the door banging against the frame. They’ll have them in your hardware store.
Or, just turn up the volume to the point where you no longer hear any rattling noise
this is the best solution
Is that a good one, Pam? I have a small cheapie, and the amp doesn’t sit well in it. I’m looking into a different one, and that one looks cool.
I’ve had it for three years and it has held a Rumble 40, a Rumble 100, and now a Rumble 500. It does the job quite well.
Awesome. I’ll probably give that one a shot.
