That's what I would do, too. If I got the 500 combo, I would want to get the 15" speaker to go with it.

Buying a bass amp isn't like buying a guitar amp where you have to concern yourself with power output for the sake of balance within the band and finding the sweet spot at an appropriate level.

In the bass universe the rule of thumb is: if some is good then more is better.
You can never have too much power.

Okay, well .... maybe you could theoretically but I don't think anybody makes a 500,000 watt bass amp at the moment.

Just think of how awesome a guitar player you could have been by now if you had only spent the last 10 years practicing instead of obsessing over pickups and roasted maple necks.

Well, if you run 500 1000 watt bass amps together, there you go. :P That would be a beautiful, yet completely ridiculous sight.
