Help me pick a cab!

Hey! I’m looking to get a lightweight cab to match a vintage Traynor YBA-2A.

Here’s what I’m looking for:
1. Portable enough that I can carry it with one hand
2. 10 or 12 inch speaker
3. If it has a tweeter, I have to be able to turn it off
4. 4 or 8 ohm
5. Can move enough air to play at reasonable volumes. The YBA-2A gets LOUD with my ampeg 410
6. Relatively clean, clear, and deep

I play a lot of different types of music and would like the Traynor + cab to be my go to setup for rehearsals and small gigs.

I currently use a mix of Ampeg, Genz Benz, and GK gear. I like the portability of the Genz Benz stuff but I really want that tube sound.

I haven’t settled on a budget yet but I will likely be selling some of the heavier cabs I own once I have the new cab, so budget will be flexible.
