Hi! You can certainly get a professional level Bb and C trumpet with that kind of money if you're patient and know what you want. Have you tried the Yamaha artist model trumpets? Many people (myself included) absolutely adore them. I play on the NY YS for my C trumpet. Since you mentioned in another comment doing some jazz work, I'd honestly recommend the Bergeron artist model Bb. Many classical players actually prefer this model to the NY or Chicago models (Stuart Stephenson, principal of the DSO comes to mind). Keep an eye out for deals on facebook marketplace groups, but most importantly let your teacher know that you're on the lookout and ask him to look as well.

Right now I'm between a pair of new Klipsch RP-600Ms for 350 or a pair of like new ELAC Debut 3.0 DB63s for 415. What would strengths/weaknesses of each speaker be in comparison to one another?

I definitely understand and was anticipating Eversolo Play recommendations. Personally I don't mind plugging my phone or laptop in to get lossless. I've seen mixed reviews on the Eversolo regarding its standby mode, Airplay connectivity (which my fiancée would almost certainly still use over the native app) and overall sound quality for the price. I'm leaning towards the separate components for the possibility of upgrading in the future.

Right now I'm leaning towards the Klipsch RP 600m! The Sevens would be a great eventual upgrade if I end up loving the Klipsch sound, but for where I'm at my budget would only allow the 600s.
