Is it possible to add a 2x12 to Rockerverb50 Combo?
I really love my 1x12 for portability and what not, but for shows I want to be able to set it on top of a 2x12 Orange cab. Is this possible? Thank you in advance!

Also had a follow up question. Would adding a 2x12 be the best way to get extra low end? Because I love how it sounds now coming out of the partially open back combo, but it doesn't sound as full and low as I would like. Someone mentioned trying a 1x15 or cab. I've never heard of that before, but he plays super heavy ass metal, maybe it works for him.

Sure is possible. Ler Lalonde of Primus was using that setup for a little while, along with some dual terrors. It'll give you a bigger fuller sound, a bit tighter bottom end.

You have to bear in mind that half the amp total output will go to each speaker out - so say 25w to combo speaker, 25w to PPC212, meaning the combos lone speaker will be a bit louder.
It should still work very nicely though.

Thanks guys! Very helpful. Also.. has anyone ever heard of running a nice tube amp such as Orange through a 15" before? For the music I'm playing my bass will be a digital programmed type of synth bass, because most of my music will be metal/rock/synth/80s kinda sounding stuff. So the lows will already be super low, like lower than what a bass guitar can get. HipHop kinda lows, not bass guitar lows. Sooo, I want to be able to make up for not having a bassist with extra lows on my guitar. I want my guitar which is already tuned to drop B to sound fatter and lower, but still tight. Is that possible?? So far it already sounds freaking beautiful running a simple Parker P-38 through it with no pedals. It's just missing a bit of more low end fatness that I want to achieve. Any ideas? Should I just get a bassist anyways? I just don't want the bassist and synth bass to class. Should this be a separate post? lol.. I'm leaning towards separate post.
