PA system... will this work?

Well, the PA we had belonged to our guitarist who just quit so I need to figure out how to put a new one together.

Our band is bass, one guitar, drums, and we have lead vocals plus two backup vocalists. We play covers. I am hopeful this setup would cover small to medium sized venues.

Here's my idea...

12 channel mixer >SABDDI > Focus SA (600w)> two 10" monitors

First I was thinking of adding something like the sabddi or para driver to warm up the vocals with the tube-esq feature. Possibly a bad idea?

Are two 10" monitors going to be loud enough for just vocals? They are rated 150w and are fairly small. I think they are Yorkville YX 150s or something.
