Hey folks. Anyone have any recommendations for a keyboard/vocals speaker amp that is superior to the Roland KC 500. I know it is highly regarded, but it is just not my personal sounding favorite. This would be mainly for solo gigs, but would sometimes for multi-singer gigs. Is there any truely outstanding all in one units, or for the quality I am wanting will I need to go with a separate speaker and amp head unit. Does anyone have knowledge of the Carvin $1000.00 unit ? Thanks for any comments. Dogman

Greetings Dogman:
Myself, I'm using a '76 Rickenbacker TR35B for keys and a separate unit (Yamaha) for vocals.

Hi Dogman, sure, the KB1015 goes for about 930 bucks that must be the one. Here you go: http://www.carvin.com/cgi-bin/Isearch.exe?CFG=2&P2=KB1015&P1=KBA
That should get you the unit's page. If not, go to http://www.carvin.com/ and search for the KB1015
San Diego, California Based company Carvin make great equipment, competitively, and have a very good reputation
MORPH!

In the situation that you have multi singers, I would go with a small pa system.
In my opinion they do a much better job then the so called keyboard amps
The best is to have powered speaker units with line thru possibility.
Also this way you attach any mixer.
