Here’s my Orange Crush Bass 25 and Bass 50 , the 25 is for the small jammin room we use and the 50 for larger rooms.
I love the tone from these Orange combos and they seem to work really well with my Yamaha bass, well to my novice ears anyway

Good day everyone. I’m finally posting my amp. I started out with a Rumble 25 and then upgraded to the Rumble 100. This is the largest size amp I’d want to practice at home, as I live in a small condo, and I have to move the amp from a closet at one end of the condo to the living room at the other end. A heavier amp would suck, and with a bigger amp I’d be bumping it into the walls even more than I do now. 
If you’ve seen one Rumble 100, you’ve seen them all, but here’s mine anyway.
I like this amp. It’s plenty loud enough to practice with and has a nice tone. I also like that it has a 4 band EQ, and the presets are nice too. I’ve even played out with it a couple times. Both were small venues, though, and one of them I used the DI into the house PA. The one with the PA was a folk band, and the other was a Rock band, but they didn’t get crazy loud. It did great for those, and I don’t think I turned the volume up more than halfway. But if I started playing out more and played larger venues, I’m sure I’d need something bigger.
Since my amp is boring, I thought I’d also show you my humble pedal collection.
I have a Boss compresser and an MXR chorus. The pedal board tote and Behringer chromatic tuner were gifts from a friend who’d upgraded both. (When we lived in the same town, I used to do setups of his Fender P-bass for him, because he didn’t know how and didn’t want to learn or do it.) I would’ve never bought a tuner pedal for myself, but it’s really nice to have. The chorus pedal is great for Journey songs. 
I don’t use the pedals much at home, as it’s just one other thing to drag out, but they’re nice to have for gigs (especially the tuner). One day I’d like to get a looper pedal and an octave pedal, but I think that’s about it for pedals (at least for now!).

With quite a lot of design help from a friendly acoustician, this is my first home-made amp cabinet. A 200W TC Electronic BAM200 amplifier driving two 100W Kevlar coned drivers, with a Vox Stomplab. All in a hand-butchered hardwood box, which combines a stool (needs a cushion), an under-lid storage box (for the wireless charger, a capo and some plectrums) and a guitar stand. The box sits on rubber feet and the side handles double as adjustable ports.

^^nice job.
a long time ago we had a discussion on here about power amps instead of integrated amps. i am still to this day kicking around the idea of switching to this setup. this stereo one has really been calling my name. i just don’t know if i’m ready to redo everything again.
albini played a homemade/frankenstein power amp setup. cool as hell.
