So at home I have Yamaha hs8’s which I love for monitoring! Almost always when I play live it’s on a stage with in ears. Occasionally though I do very odd small gigs where I would need an amp. For example sometimes we use a little fishman portable system for the singers and acoustic guitar but they want some ambient electric parts. Or sometimes I do weddings where there is no P.A. and they want acoustic guitar. I’m wondering what kind of FRFR speaker you guys would suggest. I’ve been reading about the line 6 power cab cause I like that price point. Any thoughts?? So I’m not using it as a monitor it would be the sound for smaller live occasions. Also I have an unpowered toaster
Frfr choice for smaller settings and gigs

You might try a Yamaha DXR8 on a speaker stand. I have one and it's very close to the DXR10 (which I also have).

I’ve been using a Headrush FRFR for low volume gigs (house concerts) and it works great.

The Headrush looks kewl and compact and is priced right, but I have not heard it yet.

I am using a RedSound Lg12 1x12 passive since I have a powered toaster.
It is more expensive but worth every cent.
Enough power and lightweight (13kg)

+! for Yamaha DXR series. My Xitone MBritt is a lovely alternative, but higher priced.

I just ordered the new QSC 8” CP8 - tried it. Light, 1000w sounds great, 2inputs with vol control; I plan to use one for my Kemper and the 2nd for monitor (1 speaker for both). And only $399 retail in US.

I got the Laney LFR-112, impressed so far at the sound and the price is less than the powercab, but it's heavy!
