Portable Tour Rig

[MrRight]

I am going on tour for a month and want to spend off days and free time doing acoustic demos for my next record. I want something small, portable and with a reasonable amount of sound quality.

I keep hearing about mini-disk players. But before I take that leap I would like to know what else is out there.

Also I would like to know--if I do go with the mini-disk--what I need to operate it at optimal levels.

Thanks, m
