Thanks Rich


I’ll pass this on to them.   It probably will not be acceptable because they want a separate monitor mix

I think the Roland AC-60 would serve as an excellent amplifier.  (22lbs)


The Roland AC-90 would also work, and provide a little better sound, but at the cost of more weight.


They are pole mountable and provide for two discrete inputs, so a small mixer may be required.  Good mixers are pretty inexpensive.

Another option is some light weight 8" or 10" powered speakers.

Hi folks,


A local English country dance group has noticed that I use lightweight PA systems for all of my smaller gigs.   They have asked me to advise them about which products are available that are easy to carry and lift, and will cost them (hopefully much) less than $1,000.    This would be a mixer and 2 speakers.   I would think they are looking for speakers lighter than 20 pounds.


They dance in a hall that is approximately 25 x40 with very good acoustics, and their average attendance is 30 quiet dancers.


I own two very lightweight systems which I do not think will satisfy them (Custom PA 50 and DB K300).

They work fine for my family and community dances, but the English dance community is looking for higher quality sound.
