The EV SXA100's have been working out great for me. Easy to transport & move quickly in/out. I had purchased the Mackie 450's but after two gigs, I returned them because they were not only heavy, but awkward to carry (unbalanced shape). I admit that they sound terrific but it was not worth the aggravation. The SXA100's don't have quite the punch but they have a terrificly smooth clean sound response (abeit a small amount of amp hiss if right up close). For large wedding and corporate venues, I'll augment my setup with the Bose 802's with sub. I prefer to take just the EVs though cuz it makes life so much easier. I'm still looking forward to getting a first hand report (from UD or others) on the Midi-Man 'Audio Buddy' and/or the Rolls 'Playmate' for use with the SX100's and PSR2000. I assume that these are units are much smaller/lighter than even the Mackie 1202 that I use when I need more amplifier gain. - Scott
