Great first effort EV but I'll wait for the next model with three dedicated mic inputs. If you're acoustic trio, you need at least three inputs and adding an external mixer for extra inputs defeats the whole purpose of having a single portable, self contained battery powered PA system. Saying that, EV are to be congratulated for managing to get up to 121db out of this compact speaker, not to mention the dedicated XLR output to allow connection to another speaker as opposed to a jack output like its competition has.
