I used the ROland CM-30 Cube Monitor amps tonight for a three-hour cigar bar gig. The place supposedly accomodated 100 people, but it seemed pretty crowded with the 50 or so who were there for our private party. I finally talked my partner into using them in place of the the Mackie i300's we normally use.

The worked just fine. I added my EV Sb120a sub to the mix and the sound was full and loud and clear. My guitarist loved them. He thought they were perfect for the room. I thought so too.

Of course, our music tends to get a little edgier as the night goes on. The CM-30's handled all the keyboard sounds, the midi files and vocals with no problem. These are solid amps, worthy of their Roland Cube name. I'm very happy with these amps. The sound was mixed thru a mixer and then into the cubes, but I don't think that had any effect on the efficiency or sound character of them.
