Home PA speaker for use with a looper pedal and mixer

Hey everyone, 

I'm hoping for a little bit of your knowledge. 

I have a performance setup in my living room, where I record on my looper pedal and practice stage performance. 

I need a beautiful pa speaker that will not look horrid in the room for my wife!

Something that will receive a stereo input, but within one cab (so stereo speakers but in one box)

Bought an expensive PA, and now Corona Virus has appeared!

Just after Christmas I decided to bite the bullet, and buy the new loudspeaker system I'd been trying to decide about. I'd been provided with this system on a job last summer, and really liked the sound. My research showed it to be a Marmite product -loads of people hating it with a passion and the rest loving it. As I'd heard it and liked it, I do what I always do and go with my gut.

Stage PA Amp 101 question

I have a stereo amplifier. It's a really powerful Ashly that is nice sounding. (Not really important to this topic). Being that it has two channels, can I run a mono mix to front of house (two speakers only @ 8 ohms) on one side of the amp. .And run stage monitors on the other channel ? I have a sneaky suspicion its ok as long as my ohm load is equal on both channels. Or, am I wrong.

live pa setup question

I am trying to set up a pa system with a mixer, eq, compressor, and amp. When I go in and set up the eq and all with just me and a friend in the hall. The sound is bang on. But later, when 100 people show up the sound is horrible. (sounds tinny) Any ideas on how to set this up before hand to counter the 100 people in the room? How do the pro's do it?
Thanks.
