BASS SPEAKER
There are many different bass speaker sizes in bass amplifier combos, but there is a lot of difference in the sound. You can have 6”, 8”, 10”, 12”, 15”, 18” and I have saw 21” bass speakers, but they are very rare. Theoretically speaking, the bigger the bass speaker the deeper and richer the sound. Bass sound waves are bigger in size and slower in vibration. The most commonly used bass speaker size in bass amp combos is the 15” speaker. I have a practice amp with an 8”’ and another amp which I use the most has a 12”. If I need a lot of power, I use a 400 watt head with an 18” black widow speaker. When performing I use a 12 “ or bigger because of the better quality sound.
