I went to a local music store to check out the Peavey Escort 2000 all-in-one sound reinforcement system and found that it is much nicer package than the more expensive Fender Passport 250 system - better sound and well thought facilities including compartments for 4 microphones, mic holders, mini speaker stands and space for cables and weights only 57 pounds, with 3 handles and 2 wheels. The only complaint is noticeable noise level of fan at the left back panel and the whole unit is made in China, which may or may not be a reliability problem - I have used some Behringer equipment made in China without any problems and I hope Peavey still has good quality control on their new stuff. Otherwise this is a fantastic portable system for smaller performance.
