advice for live laptop monitoring
i'm trying to find a good, LOUD keyboard amp to hook my laptop up to when i play live. i thought about getting a whole PA rig, but i'm just not into carrying all that stuff. a friend who has a similar setup uses an old peavey keyboard amp and it works great. i just wanted to pick y'all's brains and see what amps you guys like for keyboards/electronics (anything but roland amps..... they blow up too easily in my opinion). any advice?

what about a small single powered PA speaker?
The JBL Eon 10's are small, light, nice, and loud...

i have tried the eon's. they weren't loud enough, unfortunately. our drummer is a hard hitter so that's what i'm competing with sonically. i have a feeling i'm going to have to invest in some nice in-ear monitors! thanks for the advice.

I gotcha...i thought it was for performance purposes. The Shure E3's are about $99 and are great. E5's are unbelievable.

cool! i'll look into those..... that's probably the best way to go, huh? somebody mentioned the in-ear's yesterday and i was like, "duh!". they weigh nothing and would probably do the job!
it is for performances, but really just to monitor for ourselves.....
