For rehearsal’s:
I have a Hartke LX5500 amp head and need a good loud stand alone cabinet that can compete with my loud drummer and guitar player at rehearsals.
I did have a Rumble 500 combo but returned it because it was farting out with my low B.
I’m a bit hesitant to go with the Rumble 210 cab because of the Rumble 500 combo not handling my low B which makes me wonder if I would have better luck with the Rumble 115 cab.

For live gigs:
I would use either the Rumble 115 cab or the Rumble 210 cab (depending on which one I get) as an extension cab paired up with my Hartke LH500 head and my GK Neo 212 II cab.
Whichever extension cab I get would be on the opposite side of the stage from my GK Neo 212 cab.
I will park the ext cab next to my guitar player to give him a taste of his own medicine ( hehe)

All my 5 string bass’s are active and I’m only interested in the Rumble 115 or 210 cabs, just for financial reasons.

Opinions and thoughts greatly appreciated.
Cheers, Davyo

I'd advise against a 15 in the mix with a 2 x 12. Half your power goes to the 15 the other half gets split between the two 12's The Rumble 2x10 handles a lot more power than the 15.
The speaker in the 15 is (as I understand) the same one used in the Rumble 200 combo. FWIW.
A pair of tens coupled with a pair of 12's is a much better arrangement IMHO.

Yeah, I tried the Rumble 15 cab with my GK Neo 212 II and Hartke LH500 head and the 15 was farting out so it got returned.
