You are right, and I have a simliar system that I've used: Two powered EV Sx100 12" cabs and my mackie board...but it doesn't meet my jazz gig criteria setup time of 5 minutes or less, nor does it meet my system weight criteria...30 pounds or less. :) Other than this, I totally agree. That setup is good as any, plus stereo. Kris ----- Original Message ----- From: "L.A.
