I'm not sure that I would buy one. Currently, I use a compact on most gigs. I use the L1 Model 1 with 1 or 2 B1's for larger and outdoor venues and use the Compact as a stage monitor. I like that I can control the eq and volume of the L1 M1 separatly with the remote very easily - that can't be done with the L1s or for the Model 2 for that matter.
Ciao,
