More about the small amplifier: The make and model is Peavey Solo. It is battery powered, with one low Z XLR / RCA microphone input and one high Z RCA instrument input. We have two headworn XLR microphones as well which can work in each input, with some adjustment. We have two 20' XLR to XLR microphone cords and one XLR to RCA adapter.
