Hi ,

I am enjoying just learning the harp.  I do not have an amp yet.

My primary use would be for the house.  I think one of Davids videos

mentions that at least a 10 inche speaker for this type of application.

Any suggestions as to where to / what to start looking at...it is a bit overwhelming

to choose amp with the huge variety out there.

Thank you for your time

           Steven Barta

Hello Steven-   Your question is a very popular one!  Hopefully you will find a lot of useful information by reading all the posts right here on this forum.

As a vintage-kinda guy, I like the seventies-era Fender Champs, the Kalamazoo 1 and 2, and the Silvertone 1482.
