John, 

Grab the Jensen Reissue C10Q, its around $30, its IMHO the best 10" speaker 
on the market today. It sounds great for harp, and tends to favor the Pro Jr. 
in particular. Actually I believe that the Pro Jr. should come stock with 
those. The Weber's are good speakers, but they are expensive and some do not jive 
well with certain amps (Some with the Pro Jr.). I use a Reissue C10Q in my 
Kalamazoo Model 1 and it is by far the best 10" I have used. The odd thing is that 
the reissue C10Q's sound better than the originals do!
