<p>I bought a Roland CM 30 which is technically a cube monitor that is phenomenal in terms of sound quality. My daughter uses it for small venue gigs and for pure clean sound and no fx that weighs 11 pounds, vocals are better than you could hope for. It sounds unplugged, but louder. They retail for $200 and I spent $125 on ebay. </p>
<p>The only compromise with this amp is the size venue it can handle and lack of fx.</p>

saw this post some time ago, but just now getting to where i'm ready to build some amps with 6" speakers - i have 3 speakers and thought i'd try 3 different amps - a ruby, minty and i thought about a kemo - did you just wire up the kemo ic or did you add more to the circuit? any other suggestions on amps? thanks in advance<br />

I agree that the speakers are a big deal. I once hooked up a lil smokey (don't recommend them) to an orange 4X12 box and filled a medium sized room. Obviously you wouldn'd to this, but I have a micro amp with an output jack and works well with a 10 hobo speaker box.<br />

a good amp is worth saving some money for and you dont have to dump a tone of money for one either look at carvins vintage series i think they start at 300 for a all tube american made amp. you can't beat that.

I got a fender min deluxe for $9.00 awhile back normally cost around $40. plus, plays pretty good can't afford only cheap amps maybe the tops would be $50.00

keep an eye out on ebay for mini amps and micro amps sometimes you can get them for less than 20 bucks gut them and use the parts in a cba.
