Hey BG, I bought a pair of Proel TPR10A speakers from a bar for $270 I think, to run my 11R through. So far they have sat in storage, and it looks like the 11R is going back to Shafter. If you'd like the pair for stereo for $200, or a single for $100, happy to sell them. I couldn't find a lot of info on the net, but they are reviewed here:

they are a bit grubby from hanging up in a bar (never got around to cleaning them up), and have some hooks screwed into them.

What about one of those BlueGuitar amps? Two small boxes to carry to gigs?

Cheers for the offer, but I have a powered monitor here I could use, or the full PA for that matter, lol. Looks like you have a buyer there anyway!

Magnum would be cheaper than the Blue Guitar by a country mile. Fairly certain there's one of those Crate blocks on Facebook right now.
