I'm also looking at the Peavey Escort because Peavey stuff is reliable. Don't know about the sound thiough so maybe someone can chime in on that. Also like the one piece packup feature.

Bill we (my wife and I, as a Duo) had the Peavey Escort - YEARS ago - well... 2001, as a FOH PA for awhile.
The sound was *ahem* ok, but we quickly outgrew it.
No bottom end (no sub of course) and pretty tinny.
We graduated to a conventional PA and moved the escort to the rear of stage where it served as a Monitor system.
(I just asked my wife how she recalled the sound of the Peavey, and she said (and I quote) "Like we'd forgotten to take speakers with us"......lol
The Caveat here is:
The Escort may have improved dramatically since 2001.
