Hi guys, well my band is fixing to go on tour this summer, so time to drop down some cash on gear.
I will be getting an Eleven Rack (plus a ton of recording equipment to fully funish a small studio) and I plan on using that for my guitar tones. Rhythm guitarist is geting a Single Rec and buying my Blackheart 4x12 with Celestion's.
I currently have a custom made 4x12 with Celestions that I use for recording - not really something I want to take out on the road... So would a Laney/Blackstar/Avatar/or Randall 2x12 be loud enough? Would it even look right? (I also plan to run the 11rack through the Mains at venues as well)
---For rest of band:
2 Crown XLS1000 power amplifiers (4 channels total)
(Amp 1)
-ch 1 for powering Eleven Rack
-ch 2 for my bassist's bass POD
(Amp 2)
-ch 1 for powering Vocal Mixer (PV8 already have)
-ch 2 for powering Drum Mixer (PV8 already have)

I want to put it all in a Carvin 12 Space Rack Case (with wheels) so most of our equipment is in one big rack case that can be wheeled around. Space is an issue.
We have 2 15" Active Kustom Speakers and 2 12" Peavey Passive Speakers (Not really planning on touring with these, more for band practice and small shows, they work, so why fix em hahaha)
------
So basically, we have the Peavey mixers and speakers, everything else will be bought, just wanted some advice on my potential rig BEFORE I pulled the trigger. Have to have a way to power 11rack, bass pod, vocals (2 mics), and drums (4-6 mics) and would like to keep it all together for ease of transport,space, and peace of mind.
We play a southern metal/sludge style in the vein of The Melvins, Mastodon, Kyuss, Down and Load-Reload era Metallica
fawk: I know).
Budget is around $1500, give or take. Still have to buy some studio equipment as well.
