Tim C.	Re: a 10" in a champ Hi Nic, I have a silver face Champ that I rebuilt into a 5E3 clone. I put a 10" Eminence ceramic fifty watt in it but I had to move the output transformer(not the original champ transformer) location as it was in the way of the speaket basket. I am not sure if I really gained a lot of bass because the cabinet is so small but it does sound pretty good. An alnico magnet speaker may fit better than the ceramic I used. Cheers, Tim C.
