The Prosonic is one of the worst tube amps fender made. I don't what genius 
thought it would be a great idea to run two 10's with an amp with 60 watts? 
All I can say is out front, that amp sounds the absolute worst. The two 10's 
couple and "beam" very badly so that anyone in the front of that amp will be 
cut in half. 
Sell the Prosonic, find another amp; RI or Victoria Bassman can work, or 
check out some of the old Ampeg amps (M-12's are quite nice, as well as some 
old Jets too). There are much better amps than the Prosonic.
