Ported 8x10 with a horn?

Search harder or look on the musiciansfriend site. I can think of at least 5 without even trying. Ok, I'll give you one. Eden xlt810. Probably the scariest 8x10 there is. At least half of the major manufacturers make them.

As has been said most manufacturers make one.
Side note, dont get sucked into power handling ratings. Commercial cab manufacturers have hugely inflated these, and they are among the least important for actual volume output.
Example:
Is a 810 rated with a power handling of 2,000 watts louder than one rated at 1,000 or 400?
Impossible to tell with the given information. With out knowing things like the sensitivity of the cabinet and the mechanically limited power handling there is no answer. If the sensitivity is low on the 2,000 watt cab and high on the 400 watt cab, and you are only using a 200 watt head, then cab with a lower power handling will be louder. Us a pre/power set up that can supply 1,000 watts and the answer will be different.

Ya, 410's require deadlifting to get them on and off stages, whereas you can use leverage to move an 810.
+1
And if you come to stairs with a cab the size of a 410 or bigger you should be getting someone to help you with it anyways.
Those are all valid points.
I played an Ampeg 6x10 for awhile and did employ the back skids to lever it into my truck.
My bass horns are 39" and 48" tall, but they are not normal gig fare.
I have to trailer when I use these, which is seldom, and a lot of hassle.
