PA System. Choose your size and price. You'll be better off.

280 watt continuous, 560 watt peak.

JBL Eon 510's

17 pounds each

Nice and small, but big sound.

You do have to test them for noise, however...I had to return a couple before I got ones that did not make a high pitched noise on the 1/4 " channel.

I use Roland Cube Monitor CM-30 as a monitor amp which can be combined with another CM-30 to a mini PA system. Great sound, little size and weight, not too expensive, many inputs!

You should try this!

Fantom/Monitor/Mixer Cable Setup

What is the cable setup between the Fantom X, the Monitor Amp and the Mixer/PA System (ie. how do the cables link between the devices in terms of Inputs/Outputs)?

I still use an old (heavy) Peavey KB300 with a single pre-amp out to the board.

Inputs/Outputs

Sorry, maybe I didn't phrase the question correctly. Basically, I havn't a clue about connecting the Fantom X7 to two other devices: my monitor amp (a 50 Watt Crate keyboard amp) and also to the Behringer mixing board (which in turn connects to the PA system).

I just play keyboards for a folk group and the guy who leads the whole thing isn't familiar with keyboard inputs/outputs (A/B), etc. It's not the main issue here but he usually plays acoustic guitar solo (even though they have the equipment).

So I guess my question is into which ports/sockets do cables go in terms of input/output to connect all three devices so I can hear myself through the monitor amp and the church group can hear the keyboard through the PA system?
Thanks.

Justin:
Take either the mono output from the X7 (Left Output) or Right and Left outs if your Behringer and main house mix are running stereo and plug them into the Behringer mixer. Use a monitor mix out from the Behringer and plug it into the Crate monitor. Create a sub mix on the Behringer for the Crate and use the main outputs of the mixer for the house PA. Done!
