If you're really serious, get a bass amp that's at least 700 watts r.m.s.; otherwise, you're never going to be heard over the guitar players with a 100 watt bass amplifier.

There's no need for 700+ watts. It is nice, but not needed. I have an SVT3Pro into an 8X10 and puts out plenty of power. I can be heard clear over an 8-piece double-bass set, an HD147 into V-30 loaded cab, and a 6505+ into Mesa Trad. cab. Bare minimum would be 350watts (you always want to be at least 3X as much power as the guitars, so I could see where the 700 comes in, but again not absolutely vital). Also, make sure you pick up a Sansamp. It will be your best friend.
