New cabs for practice room and live use

Hi,

Our band is about to move into a shared practice space, and I'm looking to get a solid rig in there, and use it both for practice and for gigs.

When playing live, we mainly do small-medium private functions, with no PA support other than for vocals and acoustic guitar.
I currently use the tecamp rig in my signature, which is astonishingly good, but, surprise surprise, lacks low end kick when pushed a bit harder.
The Marshall cab I have gives me a fantastic warm tone with either the Peavey head or the Puma, but it's just not loud enough on its own.
I have thought of using the two cabs together with the peavey head, which does 2 ohm and has a crossover filter, but i'm not convinved that would get me a better result.

I don't need any particularly sparkly top end, but I like big low mids and I am partial to a bit of higher mids honk. I have recently tried a Hartke 2x15 XL in a shop, and found myself liking it, but at 400W into 4ohms, is it going to be loud enough in its undistorted range?
I also like cheap unusual pieces of kit, but room is somewhat limited...


Can you recommend me anything?
Cheers,
Marco

Fair point, only thing is that the cab is 4ohm and the puma head can't do 2ohm. The Peavey does though, mmhh...
