sam.spoons:
As I said, I have no experience of the SPX613. The one I put in the church was a great package for, at the time, around £350 (inc speakers, mic, leads etc). It ain't pro kit but reasonable for the money. Glad you listened to the SPX before you bought  ::)

DerTeufel:
I certainly do appreciate your responses!

I put the carvin amp and kustom speakers through their paces yesterday an hour after buying them at a gig. They performed wonderfully and much better than I had anticipated.

Greg C.:
Pretty much no powered mixer out there is going to have the performance of real power amps with an standard mixer. Allen & Heath did the best job of integrating a decent power amp into a mixer with their powered PA series mixers. But I'd still opt for a setup of either outboard amps with a mixer or a set of decent self-powered speakers with mixer. Most all in one mixer/amp PA heads are suitable as either vocals-only PA systems or vocals with reinforcement of select instruments that don't include bass or drums. They just don't have the headroom for solid low frequency reproduction without sucking up all the headroom needed for vocals.

DerTeufel:
I agree with you on all points. That's why I went with the Carvin power amp and passive speakers.
