[HANASHIR:14257] portable sound systems

[Stevehumm <Stevehumm...>]

with all the talk about sound systems, i just had to weigh in.  my synagogue 
does a lot of outdoor events, and we bought a "stagemate" from carvin.  carvin 
only sells directly from a catalog, over the internet, and in their factory 
owned stores in southern california.  don't be afraid.  every major musicians 
magazine which reviews guitars, amps, and sound systems sings their praises.  
The stagemate operates on batteries, has an availabe stand, and you can even 
get an extension speaker.  it has microphone and guitar inputs, and you can 
even hook a cd player up to it.  a single charge runs approx 4-6 hours, and you 
can also buy an auxillary battery.  all that for approx $350-$700, depending on 
how many options you want.

good luck
