Russ,
I have a Yamaha powered pa. I don't have the model number with me but it has three 200w amps built in. Two are for stereo and 1 for monitors. For solo jobs I run my keyboard through the L & R with the speakers more or less behind me and then I use the monitor channel for the vocals with the speakers more to the front. It works well.
I do have to say that Uncle Dave never liked this amp because the effects, which are only reverb, aren't very good. I use the reverb from my SD-1 anyway so I don't really care.
I also like the fact that if I should ever lose a channel I still have two left.
I have had no trouble with it.
Tom
