i rented the 1x15- you get more bottom end with another speaker, but wouldn't like to lug all that to a gig

nah distortion channel on max. for reasons of adding another 210 like lozz said i actually bought the bassman 500. so my darkglass runs 350w on it's own but if you add another speaker they run at 500w. it was all a little confusing. 350w is loud, it sounds big. think if i do a bigger venue ive got the option of adding another. i tried it in the studio the other day i have a picture

Hey guys, I'm a guitarist now playing distorted bass. I just bought a darkglass 210 which is rated 500w at 8ohm, my current amp is 250w at 8ohm (500w at 4ohm) and want to ask what if I bought a Fender Bassman 800- becuase I just downloaded the manual and it says for this amp it's 500w at 8ohm (800w at 4ohm). Firstly would this work? To me it sounds right- 500 output into a 500 watt speaker, or do you want one to be higher, like the speaker higher- for safety? And if it does work/good fit- what would the sonic difference be?would I get more power, more bottom end? Is there advantages to having the extra headroom, if you're at half volume. Similarly- is there an advantage to having my current setup and driving it harder, because remember I'm doing distorted bass. Also relevant. Hope you can help. Peace.
