hmm, interesting. i'm going to go see what they're like this evening. it seems like the most sensible option for me. i didn't really want to spend more than 500-700$ and i think this kit could do what i want it to do.

I also have the possible option of buying just the head here and there is another guy selling an Ampeg BSE410H for 350$ that would be compatible with the yamaha head. I'm guessing this would be more durable and give a better sound?

i was looking to spend between about 500, 700 max. but i was actually wondering if that was a realistic budget or not.
