System to take on the road


Well, it's time to pack up the main rig and put it in storage. Just got a job overseas and it looks like I'll be on the road most of the time. Still I can't live without my music. Any suggestions for a reasonably priced portable system that I can pack in a single suitcase and haul around with me. I figure I could get some micro mini monitors, a little tube amp and a micromega cd player and have a decent sounding little rig that I can set up in my hotel rooms and enjoy? Others have suggested a good headphone amp...that's possible, but I like to have music that everyone in the room can enjoy as well. I'll look forward to your ideas.

Here's another, cheaper option...

Cambridge Soundworks makes a portable amp/speaker combo. I've never heard it, but I'm sure it's much better than a boombox. It comes in it's own small suitcase (which doubles as the subwoofer). I think it may also have room to hold a portable CD player. It's nowhere near as nice as the above system, but it's probably smaller, easier, and cheaper. I think it costs $399.
