I just ordered a Quilter ToneBlock which is a tiny 200 watt solid state amp.
I want to run the Toneblock in stereo with my Quilter Micropro 8" combo .
The Micropro uses a "full range" 8" speaker (celestion TF0818) which works great with the solid state amp.
The Micropro amp is 100 watts. The Celestion TF0818 speaker is 100 Wrms, 94dB with a freq range of 70-6000Hz.
I plan on having a small cab built around the ToneBlock, maybe 10"w x 12"h x 8"d. The ToneBlock is 200 watts, and I want to run just a single 8" speaker. There are a few choices from Celestion and others found at USSpeaker that are non-guitar speakers. A single 8" guitar speaker does not handle that kind of power. Which is fine, because I know the full range Celestion TF0818 sounds just fine in the Micropro. But I'm confused on which 8" 200 watt model speaker to attempt that will sound close to the TF0818?
The Celestion FTR08-2011D seems close to the TF0818 specs...
FTR08-2011D 200Wrms 93dB 70-6000Hz
There are a couple others in the ballpark as well.
I'm just not sure if Freq Range alone will tell me if its gonna sound comparable to the Micropros TF0818 speaker.
Let me know if anyone has info on this subject. Here are links to Celestion and USSpeaker. They have Frequency Graphs if that helps any.
Speaker currently in Quilter Micropro (Celestion TF0818) see graph and other related speakers from list on left.
