Will this create a bass rumble around 10-20Hz from a source that doesn't produce a rumble though it does support that low of frequency?

The amp does not add rumble to the source. It seems to just exacerbate the rumble if it is already present, especially if the output is through cheaper speakers or headphones. The quality of the source and original recording seems to have a significant impact on the output. For the most part, I must say that the E11 amp sounds great, and worth every penny. Some of the pricier amps have more accurate EQ's that include more mid-range control. I will probably be giving the E12 a shot in the near future, and possibly the E07K DAC later on. They both have a higher degree of EQ control (so they say). The amp does not add rumble to the source.

It just amplifies what goes into it, the frequency response is pretty flat unless you change the EQ switch, and even then it's only a very slight increase in the 20-40 Hz range.

yes it will it has 2 setting which increase bass 1 is enough to make ur brain vibrate without mudding up the sound and 2 takes it to another level and still has quite good sound quality

Amplifiers cannot amplify what is not sent to them. If the source cannot output that range then it will not be fed into the amplifier. The bass boost will increase the amount of bass you feel, but this will be the from the signal that can be output from the source.

From my experience, it will not as long as the EQ is kept at the zero position.

I have some music that includes swelling thunder and even at higher volumes I heard nothing that wasn't already there. Mind that my only source has been my ipod touch. And I am using a very good set of Audio-Technica headphones. I have had to adjust the gain and the equalizer settings to some music. But not very often. This is a very clean amplifier.

Yes it will! That's exactly what I'm using for and it works okay but acceptable range is around or less than 10ft - after that it's breaking the sound.

Not on a bass guitar, but I did have it wired up to a microphone (for my trombone). It handled the frequencies okay when it worked, but it only lasted a couple months before the switch became super noisy and then non-responsive.

yes it will, but you may end up with hum, it is a tube preamp, it does have a bass guitar setting. you can return it, so hell try it.

It really depends on how strong a low rumble you want. These are very powerful speakers, in my opinion, but I use the speakers for listening to music and not gaming, so I can't speak to that. They're sitting on my desk, right next to my monitor and when I have the sound turned up, even mid way, I can feel the air pumping out of the ports at the bottom of the speakers. I thought about getting a sub with them, but after using them for a couple of weeks, I determined that they do the job just as well without one for me.

Yes, am using a Polk 10" powered subwoofer. My room is not large, and the Polk is more than enough rumble.

@ +12db you will hear some noise, but for live work it's acceptable&gt; I would not use it for studio post production mix downs. Hope this was helpful.

I'd look at the Fender Rumble Bass Amps, they are made for bass and there are several different sizes and price ranges to choose from.

yes,but without preamp it wont get very loud,although it may be loud enough for you.

I don't think this amp would sound very good with a bass guitar. It tends to be better for bright tones, which doesn't make it very good for a bass tone. I'm sure you could play it safely at lower volumes, but I don't think it would be a very good bass tone.

Probably, but it is a P.A. Amplifier and may not have the frequency response you need for music.

No. Sub amps only produce bass frequencies. Hook these up to the radio, or even better, buy a mids and highs amp, set the active crossovers and take capacitor off the tweeter.

No in fact I would recommend that you have really good eq first. All this does is captures crazy frequencies and blocks them. If you have bad eq,bthen it will begin to grab good frequencies too... and I had to reposition it after the eq

It has a low end driver and their is no workable treb,midBass setting,it says it has but unless you have video combined I see no way of adjusting it for your low end db setting.I would say "NO" dont waste your money save up a extra $100 and buy a harke or if your on a tight budget a fender 40 or 60 watt bass amp will give you better results,you can mic a small amp for small gigs or basement bands.

Hi Quincy.You could connect your mixer via the stereo channels and drag the low freq on the eq up. Or you could use an equalizer to ajust the sound. A recommend an equalizer because you can ajust the low frequencies on multiple levels. Regards. Rasmus Pedersen

For some reason Amazon thinks I should answer you, but I don't have an active pickup bass right now so I can't check. I can say that I've used a SansAmp Bass Driver in front of it and it handles it well. There's a lot of good tone in this (Orange) box.
