It seems like there is a whole in the market right now.



This is basically what I'm doing. Despite what it might sound like in this thread, I'm quite happy with my set up. I have two JBL Eon Ones, a QSC TouchMix8 and a TC Helicon VoiceSolo 150 FX. I can go into the TouchMix and out to one or two Eon Ones as needed and I then use the VoiceSolo as my monitor. Or I could skip the mixer and go into the VoiceSolo and then out to an Eon One (or two if I put a GoRack in there.)

I would gladly trade in the VoiceSolo for what I've been describing: something a little bit bigger that sounds better and could fill a small venue on its own. But that something would have to do what the VoiceSolo can do: be mounted on a stand and tilt at a couple different angles to be a good monitor. Oddly, nothing like that seems to exist!

Matt you seem to have misunderstood my post. While it is quite possible that there is such a system (that you have not found yet) for your individual tastes and preference criteria ... It is impossible for one model or system to be the "go to" for everyone doing solo touring as a singer, guitar player . Because they all have different criteria for preference. There are far to many individual sets of criteria and orders of preference, and magnitudes of importance, like .... best quality sound - cost- portability- simplicity -versatility- number of pieces - audience coverage - amount of effects possibility- on board effects - outboard effects - control over parameters -presets- etc.etc.etc. It is not possible to be all things to all people or even the right compromise of factors to all people .
