New amp and 2x10 cabinet

[GRAHAM SG1]

I have got a GK MB210 and love the little beast, I have one `HUGE` gripe though, I bought it because at the time it would very soon have a little brother called the GK MBE210, or so the shops and GK said, well many months have passed (over 6 months in fact) and still no sign of little MBE, this is really peeing me off now, to the extent that I am thinking of selling my amp and buying another make that is available to get me to the 500 Watt minimum level that I originally wanted, I feel dissapointed that it was advertised so long ago, I looked at Thomann (online music store) and they mention November 26th as a date expected for this cab, I will give it till xmas then decide .
In the meantime, what set up would you guys recommend, my requirements are now as follows;

Separate amp head not combo
Minimum 500 Watts
2x10 cab/cabs (one if possible)
Must all be as lightweight as possible
Must not put me in the position of having to rob a bank !

I welcome your suggestions

If you are gigging, a pair of 2x10s or a 4x10 would be a minimum in my mind. The due date for the GK cabinet is only a few weeks away.

The 210MBE is in stock at Guitar Center online and Musician's Friend online.

musician's friend does some international shipping. but probably by the time you got it, your local shop would have them in...

Since your already familiar with and like the G.K. sound I'd suggest your looking at a G.K. MB-500 head.
350 watts at 8 ohms.
500 watts at 4 ohms.
3.8 lbs.
Pair that head with a 8 ohm, 210, Neo cabinet that's available to you in the U.K. that you like, add another matching 8 ohm 210 down the road when funds permit.
I'm running a G.K. MB-500 head into two, 8 ohm, Avatar Neo 210 cabinets that are stacked as a vertical 410...love this rig!
Use one 210 for rehearsals/small low-volume gigs, both cabinets when more bottom, volume and coverage is needed.

Thanks for the replies, I did look at the Orange Terror amp and the 4x10 SP isobaric cab, I am intrigued by these cabs but cant help thinking they wont be any louder than a 2x10, they have the same surface area ?
I also looked at the Genz Benz below;

They only sell it with the 8 0hm cab I believe so it wont give the full 600 watts as it stands .
Oh well, maybe santa will be kind to me
