its worth having a look ath his range of stuff...no offence to your "mate"...I think he's looking a bit much....just my opinion

I use the speakers that you mention and they have served me well for 2 years (small venues).
Can't comment on amp and cables.

The price? I paid £75 for speakers and Victor Morris in Glasgow still has these at that price so overall this could maybe be a wee bit expensive.
What about a new Beringer 500 amp and mixer from same source at £260?

Wish you luck
