Just curious if it is possible to run two (a 2x10 & 1x15) simultaneously. I've never really messed with combos too much but would like to try these. I would prefer not to use one just as an extension cabinet but rather run both with their individual settings from one signal.

Possible?

Not sure if this would work or not. However, I think that Fender should have made these with an extension cabinet.

Just curious. Are you trying to do this because of volume? I played the 15" at a local store and didn't think the 350 watts was quite loud enough to play a club.

Are you doing it for volume or tone?

Volume and Tone. I figured it might not be loud enough to play a gig. I record DI with an array of Tech 21 gear which works great but thought a couple of these together would be a great live setup just for some variety. I suppose I had too high of expectations for Fender's bass department (yet again).

I agree. My Bassman 250/115 is louder!

Sure it is.

I run a pair of DRRI's in parallel via a Lehle Little Dual Amp Switch Pedal.

I'd tried this with a less expensive Whirlwind A/B box, but had a bad hum. Later found this was called 'ground loop'. The Lehle incorporates an isolation xfmr in the signal chain, eliminating the loop.

I've read some have sucess with an A/B without an isol xvmr, but I didn't.

I'd guess you could try with any A/B switchbox and see. Perhaps the fact that the power amp is solid state will have an effect and inhibit the hum. Dunno.

I've also since found that I can run the two DRRIs together through a MXR stereo chorus without hum, but I still like to be able to also switch left to right at times so...found a use for the Whirlwind and my extra cables.

I've recently picked up my first bass to fart around with and do a little recording. Have quickly decided the Roland Bass 30 I bought just isn't cutting it. With my Son banging on the drums, I can barely hear the bass.
Have been looking hard on line at this new TV series. Was glad to finally read in the thread dedicated to them that a couple who posted had actually tried one. I need to get into town (I'm about a hunerd miles in the sticks) and plug into some. Have also read very good reviews about the Markbass 2x10 combo and plan on comparing it to the TV 15.

I love the laquered tweed look. Have a Blues Jr NOS I drag to work, and it's really a decent little amp and a great looker.

I haven't been here in awhile and happened to notice your topic.

I would think you could run a cable from the line out (or D.I. out, which I believe the amp has) to the input of the second amplifier. Your bass will be plugged into the first amp, which the line out is being utilized. This should work, since I've done this a long time ago with some amps I had.

Oh yeah, you would probably need an XLR to 1/4 jack type cable, or some sort of adapter, since I believe the line out is XLR.

think you can also plug the bass into line one, then run a cable from line 2 to either input on the second amp.
