Here's the scenario ...
Vocal microphone and a guitar (acoustic and / or electric) into a TC Helicon Play GTX unit then going into a what?
Some kind of small pa / personal monitor / speaker system for home use.
Options...
1) Active studio monitors with balanced xlr inputs. I have found the Tannoy Reveal series at modest cost.
2) A small portable PA type system such as the Yamaha Stagepas 401i. Definitely top end of budget and size
3) A personal speaker / monitor such as the Behringer B205D
or B207mp3
It would be for use in a small bedroom.
I mainly want to play acoustic guitar in but would like it to be able to cope with electric guitar in too (both via the TC GTX unit).
MP3 in is good - any connection is fine,
Connectivity to a PC for recording would be a big bonus.
Thanks

Yes, guitar-Tonelab-mixer-speakers.
In theory I could probably send the outputs of the Tonelab straight to powered monitors and you might be able to do the same with your TC Helicon unit... But a small Behringer (for example) mixer is inexpensive and would give you more control over the setup and have more options in future (other instruments, microphones, MP3/CD, effect units etc). Also, many mixers have Firewire or USB I/O, making recording into a computer very easy.
