Pennywiz..as I said, I bought 2 of these little guys for my grandson and then two more for back-ups for me. They handle 300 watts with no problem. We use them for outside DJ work. The cabinets are 8 ohm.

The suggestion to get a used PA head with integral mixer is good. I've seen small used 100-200 watt Peavy and Kustom heads for under $100.00 at some local music stores.

Maby someone on the forum has something that would work and be in your price range.

We're using the little Nady 160 watt 4-channel heads listed in the same page of Musicians Friend for back ups. They're $129.00 and seem to work fine.
