Moving up from a small PA to more of a midrange system is painful on the pocketbook. And this is just for a small, barebones system. The amp is more than capable though, I'm buying bigger than what is required, planning ahead.

Hmm, speaking of Ren... Have you used any of these DI boxes Ren? I'm drooling over the prospects.
