I totally concur with what you're saying. I primarily want stereo spot monitors to act as a direct in my face stage monitor, letting the Main PA speakers (EV SxA100's) provide (fill in) the low end (bass). I would rely on the spot monitors alone, for only the smallest rooms & background music. Both the Carvin & Yamaha MS202II options are also ultra lightweight, easy to transport, and quick to setup, providing everythng I've grown to appeciate about built into the keyboard speakers + MORE. - Scott
