Fender Super Twin.

Celestions are honest speakers, (so will handle a true 50W, unlike some other speaker brands) but not all are great. Those ones are definitely built to a low price-point. At 95dB, it's not the loudest speaker out there (though probably a benefit with a 200W amp) so don't be surprised if the amp doesn't sound as loud as you think it should. https://celestion.com/product/20/rocket_50/

The trouble with a quad-box is that it costs such a lot to upgrade all the speakers.

I guess the Ashton quad box I bought is better than nothing at all, at least I know it is working perfectly with no rattles or distorted sound from the speakers, I may end up upgrading the speakers at a later date, but for the time being they're fine.

Now that I've got the speakers sorted out, I can turn my attention to the amplifier itself, I have been doing my best to resist the urge to try the amp out with the quad box because I want to be 100% sure that the amp is totally electrically safe, I really don't plan on dying from a 500V DC shock any time soon, one thing I definitely need to do is replace the stock 3-core mains cabling, if I was doing an electrical Tag and Test on it I'd fail it.
