12 pounds with a Neo, last one I had. I am switching to the SICA Neo at 350 watts and 8.85 lbs!

I first tried the Jensen Neo in my new amp. It was OK and then I tried a Peavey 1501-4SB. Then my amp came alive. I knew I did not have that premium speaker sound I wanted with the Jensen. As an OEM for Jensen I also get the SICA line as well (the company that actually produces the Jensen speakers we get these days). They sent the 250 and 350 watt for evaluation. Immediately I knew I had what I wanted!!

The retail outlet for them is Antique Electronics or my Website. I am in agreement with the distributor to sell at the prices shown at AES. I do however offer free drop shipping to the local 48. I also agreed to sell only the speakers needed for the steel community on the my site. You can get 4 or 8 ohm at 250 and 350 watts on the website.

I have an Evans SE200, would I need a 4 ohm, or 8 ohm speaker for this amp??

You can use either for the Evans. Unless the speaker has been replaced you probably have an 8 ohm in the Evans now. You could actually run an 8 ohm extension cabinet with the Evans if you have an 8 ohm installed now. Power wise your looking at about 160 watts with an 8 ohm versus 200 watts with a 4 ohm. I'm currently running a 4 ohm in my SE-200.
