I'd like to add more bass to my sound system. I use a Yamaha StagePas 500 to play mp3's for smaller rooms and some outside venues. Will this unit do?

I have used this for both smaller and bigger rooms and its got great power. Placementfor me has been key always....play around with it. In a smaller room you may not haveas many options, but it has always done the trick for me.

I can tell you from my experience, I used this unit and two small TC Helicon Voice-solo monitors for a monitor system for my electronic drum set for a small venue that my band played. All we had for the fronts were two 15" Kustom PA speakers ran through a powered mixing board. Pretty much all the low end for my Kick drum came from the Yamaha SW315. It definitely worked for us. I know that this this model is for home use, but it puts out so much bass that I use it for a lot more.. Hope this helps...

Absolutely. This unit provides nice clean bass. Would be great for smaller room.

Yes. As long as you have a receiver that does at least 5.1. Plus you need to make sure the inputs for the sub match the inputs for the receiver. Otherwise you may need some adapters to get it to work.I use 4 of these with one center channel being a different Yamaha and it sounds great. My family just visited this weekend and commented about how awesome it was.

I once did this, with a high end onkyo receiver, but I built the cabinets for bass, and with proper baffling. You can do it, dont clip the amp, youll damage the speakers.

I wouldn't suggest it. The horn and speaker config in a PA speaker is not designed to work well with a bass amp. Your tone wont be very good. If you decide to go down this path it needs to be able to handle 480 Watts

I put these in old Community Floor Monitors and they played well with the original horn. Not a lot of bass but that may be from the design of the cab. For stage monitors I don't want a lot of bass anyway. Let the subs do the bass for the venue. I Prefer EV or JBL to Cerwin Vega for mains. I'd recommend the higher end EVs if you can afford them. JBL are easily overdriven and damaged if you are not careful in your setup and mixing.

It will be fine. The issue is this unit does not have a low pass filter so if you want bass you're better off looking at something else

I've been happy with wiring the second inputs separately on the big L and R speakers and using that for the low end, but I'm also not a major bass-head. I'd suggest trying that first and then if you feel you need to add a sub, do it.

I have one in a 800 square foot room and it fills it plenty. However if the question is "do u need more bass" then Why not have 2

Yes but only if the tuner is of excellent quality. The amp will increase the bass but a poor tuner can cause the signal to blow up the speaker because it f the sign wave.

My speakers are 500 Watts continuous power, and I use them for DJing. I setup my system at home and used the meter on my Amp to gauge how far to push the speakers, I added a subwoofer to take most of the base so I wouldn't have to push the speakers to hard to get more bass. My speakers also have a safety feature that won't allow them to be pushed further than they can handle! I guess it really depends on the venue that you're using them in!

I would imagine so. The bass guitar using the same connectivity as a guitar. I can't vouch for the sound. It's limited if you're looking for a "big" sound, but it works for small area.

Not sure how well it will sound with a bass. This is very small in size and lightweight. It works fine for guitar.

Sure thing, even better if you add a small subwoofer to the system. I have these plugged into an older Yamaha receiver along with an 8" JBL powered sub and it sounds pretty sweet!

I have a similar receiver and they work great for the money. I do not crank it up so my neighbors down the block can hear it, but my next door neighbors have mentioned it... Set the crossover on your amp so your sub will take most of your bass (80 - 100hz) and you will be fine. I have been using them for over a year now with zero complaints.

No. Also will need more airspace. I assume you want a compact amp to make a bass tube?

assuming that you have an XLR output on your bass amp, this should work great.
