I know this has been discussed BUT ... I'm thinking of a 'small', not too heavy amp for small gigs ... something self contained to carry the kb and mic for vocals... would like stereo for the kb and mic, and eq and effects (reverb in particular) for the mic ... (if necessary, I could use my Alesis mixer into the amp)
Budget - less than $400...

OR ... while I would like a self contained unit, how about a small light weight powered amp to push the kb and mic which I would use with a Peavey cab that has a 14", two mids and a horn ???

What suggestions do you have?

thnx,
t.

Tony, are you SURE it's a 14"? Didn't know 14" speakers were made.

Sure they are. They're for 61 key keyboards. 76's and 88's use 15" and 18" respectivly. I didn't know this either, but Kingfrog (who knows everything) confirmed it.

PS: Still, I'd check it with Diki and Ian just to be sure.

Hi:

I also recommend the Roland AC60.
Roland itself uses it regularly in small seminars to connect keyboards, and microphones.
Is really multipurpose, they marketed as an acoustic guitar amp, but it has a XLR input for mic and also has 2 separate FX, besides the 1/4 inch inputs/outputs, small but powerful for similar size gigs.

Yep they are...but they are not very common.

Paradigm make a 14" 300 watt sub woofer and there is also an 1800 watt SuperCube sub woofer made by Definitive Technology.

Don't see them too often in standard cabinets...usually 10, 12, 15 and 18 are the norm.
