Given the stated budget, I could come close by cobbling together a more-than-passable system with used, older-technology components. Keep your eye on CL: lots of used gear in good working condition but less-than-stellar cosmetics...nothing that a little elbow grease and glue won't fix. The wise seller is motivated as it is cheaper to sell locally at a discount than to ship.
Thanks to the advent of the newer lightweight power amps, perfectly good lead-sleds (e.g QSC RMX 1450 / 2450) can be had for ~$150-200.
