Gary I have personally gigged with the Micro and it can be made to sound very good, yes it makes alot of sense, believe me I have played with groups all over the world years ago and used alot of gear that wasn't mine you just make it work with your talents and experience,......have you gigged with the micro vsv just a few minutes in a store?.....also when traveling many times just your Kb is all you need especially if your visiting someone and can rent or borrow gear just for the gig with out having to carry it yourself especially on a plane..the micro certainly has its attributes if you know how to use it.

Hope your sailing in this very warm weather....

take care
