Hello Jim!
To be honest with you, I wouldn't say that they would work perfectly as a pair. You could use both of the speakers at the same, however, you'll have different frequency responses, coverage angles, and SPL levels.
You would have to carefully check that they match regarding sound and that they sound how you would like, at the location that you use them, in the specific application. I hope that this information was useful and have a great day!
From a practical point of view, if it was all I had on a gig I would spend a bit of time getting the balance right in the venue. I wouldn’t say no it can’t be done. However for a long term relationship I would prefer to matched pairs purely from the faff stand point.
I would also add depending on the gigs your doing with them the narrower dispersion would probably work better in smaller venues, the wider dispersion better for bigger venues where you can get the mics behind the speakers.
I currently have a single QSC CP8 which is great but can't find another! Previously I had a Yamaha DXR10 but same problem - a single one.
The venues are pubs type but can be reasonably rowdy - just busy and punters chatting, shouting, enjoying themselves.
The PA needs to be predominantly for a female singer and depending on set etc acoustic guitar as well. I don't really want anything too big and bulky so am pretty sure that an 8" or 10" will fit the purpose well. So Im looking at either Yamaha DXR 8s or 10s or QSC CP8s or CP10s.
It would have the same footprint in the car as a CP8
The usual reason someone is selling just one PA cabinet is because the other one died.
