Sometimes it’s enough to make me think of switching to playing a piccolo.

Keep in mind low frequencies travel incredibly far, so it doesn’t matter to your neighbors what amp you get if you’re playing bass.

Hi,
I had a 90watts Behringer combo for the past duzend of years. Last week I bought a used Fender Rumble 500.
There are worlds between both combos! I am really positive surprised. It really sounds like having another bass - more professional.
It was really worth the money and I can really recommand doing that investigation.

Yep, 2 - 10" speakers with 350 Watts (Without external cab) will do that. 
ohh jeeeez, now i have to come here and listen to this 
i’m literally dreaming about bass modes/peaks and nulls, i’ve been studying them so much. building a theater in my basement and this is a huge concern. and yes it is a real thing, in some rooms the bass response in some frequencies can drop to nearly zero dB. which means if you play a steady bass frequency you would not hear it in some areas. and in some areas it might be waayy too loud. so in a theater, if you don’t get this right you might be hearing one thing and the person next to you may be hearing something way way different. and yes as dave says if that’s whats going on in your room simply do one of two things: move yourself to a different spot (walk around) or move your amp to a different spot. if it improves, you’ve got a free fix.

I worked on a home theater a few years ago where the owner built Helmholz resonator bass traps into the seating terraces. It was fun watching the grid of holes into the floor appear, all done with a handheld hole saw through plywood, built in-place.

hah funny you should mention that. the guy who is designing my layout (and has been immensely useful and worth the money) also has that as an option in my theater. might be a bridge too far though. this is what kind of made him youtube famous, because the whole world was waiting for an easy to follow tutorial on how to do this.

Pretty cool. I guess these kind of home theaters is a bit more common in the USA? At least I never seen one local.

They’re definitely not a standard feature in homes here and usually in big houses. My house is very small and it’s going in the basement which is challenging.

At the level where there’s terraced seating, they are $14 million+ homes. The one I referenced above is a name you have seen many times. I live in northern California, so the tech millionaire scene is pretty thick.

I want a video of him saying “I’m Pee Wee Herman” to Poppy who replies “I’m Poppy” for about 15 minutes.

A home theater certainly would have been less costly.

Welcome to my playhouse? Naa, no thanks.
In the meanwhile I ordered the speaker extension - the Fender Rumble210 - to extend the Rumble500. I hope to get it end of november. I’m curious how this will sound like…

Sould sound awesome. The Rumble 500 is already a 2x10, so this will give you 2x 2x10, which seems like a nice set of speakers to me.
