Scotty,

I'm so glad you brought up this topic. Not to start another long winded debate regarding stereo vs. mono, but I've been using a Stereo Keyboard amp for about a year now doing about 60 gigs and I'll never go back to playing through a MONO system. I hear the difference, the crowd hears the difference, and the band hears the difference.

With that said, I have had terrific experiences using this Fender Keyboard Amp - SFX 200 http://www.musiciansnews.com/piano/64/sfx_200_keyboard_amplifier.shtml

I don't know why Fender killed it (Sales probably), but for me this amp is rugged, lightweight, has wheels, great effects for Vocals, and great stereo imaging.

A freind of mine told me to check out the new CARVIN stereo keyboard amps. I might consider getting one as a backup in case of an emergency. They can be viewed at : http://www.carvin.com/cgi-bin/Isearch.exe?P1=KBA

The friendly neighborhood keyboard salesman is trying to talk me into getting (2) JBL G2 Eon's for all around stereo high amplification with a clean sound. I have not tried them yet in a keyboard situation,but I am familiar with them in vocal situations and they sound clean and pure.

I did have a Motion Sound Pro3T Leslie simulator amp that I used for 1 gig and sold on Ebay. I didn't like it at all since the rotor effect was only pronounced at very high volume levels.

Good luck with your persuit, I hope any of this information helps.

Al
