So: for this application, I was thinking an SA330x with the sub and mixer doo-hickey. No fuss, no muss, 6 total inputs, one and done, $1500-ish.
Or: get a powered mixer (Mackie, of course), sub, and two speakers on poles, and use the loudbox the same way I was. More fuss, more muss, maybe less $$/more flexibility?

How big a venue are you contemplating?
Cheapest way to go would be to use your Loudbox as the PA. Bring all your inputs together in an unpowered mixer, feeding into the Loudbox. If you need more wattage, a powered speaker could be added (or replace your Loudbox).
But, I am cheap. er...economical.
