Help with small combo.

Sign in to disble this ad
Here's the deal: I want a really small combo with a 8" or 10" speaker that costs me less than $200 and sounds decent. Is there any???

True, but not @ Acoustic's amazing price point. Especially given the excellent IMHO 123 promo price,

Not a lot of single 8 or 10" combos that sound good.
Probably need at least a single 12, or a 2x10 combo for any volume at all. Unless you're looking for something for home practice.

If you have PA support or have a really quiet drummer you might be ok, but single 10 doesn't have a lot of cone area to work with.
