Default 12/100 or10/100-- brand please

I seek a good amp, $400 max, with 100 watts & either a 10" or12" speaker. I will give it away to a sorta good friend whose amp is too weak.

Any suggestions of what to buy & where to buy it will be muchly appreciated.

Since this is posted in the acoustic section, I assume you're after an acoustic amp. For your budget and power request, I'd suggest a little mixer with onboard effects, like a Soundcraft 8fx or Yamaha MG06x and a powered 12" speaker like a Harbinger V2112.

There really aren't a whole lot of 100 watt acoustic amps out there with 12" or even 10" speakers in them at that price point.

On the other hand, if you're after a combo amp for portability, Peavey makes one that is designed to be used for electric, bass, and/or acoustic. Check out the Vypyr VIP 3. I had the 40 watt vip 2 and it was very loud. I've heard the Vip 3 packs a punch.

Best of luck.

10Q very much. I checked out both sweetwater suggestions. I will go with one of these, in all likelihood.

I have a watchman at ebay who is also looking. If I wait a while, I could spend up to $600. I'll be looking-- I have more time than $$$ except -- we are all just one heartbeat away from eternity, right?

Again, thank you both for your help.

The Fender Acoustasonic 90 should fit the bill if you are looking for two channels (instrument and mike).

Watch Craigslist. In my area there is currently a Fishman Loudbox Performer listed for $450 so good deals are out there.
