Welcome along Jack.
Have you ordered the powered head?
I run EV SX200's as my monitors and they work well.Bear in mind that I also use a jack to Speakon adapter on the cabinet end.I have the Ambrosi power amp insert but to run stereo a power amp for the other side is needed.
I also have a few guitar cabinets ( Mesa,Cornford,Hiwatt etc... ) but after using the KPA for over 5 years now, I prefer the sound on stage from the FRFR PA cabs.
Most quality wedges can be used in 'conventional' backline mode as well and generally will project better than a guitar cab.
And welcome.
Display MoreThanks, both. I have indeed ordered the PowerHead.
My only cab currently is a Zilla Dinky with a Alnico Celestion Cream. Great speaker - just don't want to blow it up..
Any fans of the Matrix Nl12s? Not true FRFR but look the part, as a cab.
Any suggestions?
Cheers!
XiTone passive 1x12 Wedge (coaxial-based FRFR). I own one, and highly recommend it.

Also, there is the Mission Engineering Gemini 1-P Passive (also coaxial based), which is in a traditional guitar cabinet style.

Any Laney IRT X fans?
Me! I have two that I use in a Wet-Dry-Wet setup.
Hi Jack,
I originally ran my Kemper through a conventional cab for 18 months and was very pleased with it. I now use an unpowered monitor but my main sound goes direct through the PA so its purely for on stage sound.
You have so many options the list goes on.
I am an FRFR convert from conventional cabs because you get a more acurrate sound and you can run it as your backline and this works well if not going into the PA. Depends on the spread and what you are used to but it should work as well as a 4 x12 as backline, but personally I'd push it through the PA and make use of that..
I'm also in the UK, Midlands...
