I would like to buy a combo for going to my practice sessions and for small gig. I have 2 nice Genelec 1032 at home, but I need something more practical for "traveling" ... my K2600XS is already a big deal :roll:
I think to buy the Hartke KM200 (http://www.samsontech.com/products/productpage.cfm?prodID=1733&brandID=3)
But if you have some other proposition / suggestion or comment regarding my first choice ....

I've not come across their keyboard amps, but Hartke stuff is normally excellent, their bass stuff sounds great and is really reliable. It's quite a clinical sound, which would be ideal for keyboards :)

Hadn't seen those Hartke amps before, seems pretty nice.
My choice would still be the Carvin line of keyboard amps:

I use a Peavey KB/A 300 and it works just fine for what you said. And it's probably cheaper than the carvins and Hartkes...

Try the Barbetta line.

I use a Crate KX-80 with an old TOA powered hotspot monitor to boost the high end. It's actually a nice combination. The Crate gives me a nice full bottom end, and the older TOA has a nice crisp high. I usually stack my midi rack on top of the Amp, and then place the wedge on top. Makes for a nice stage setup, and I can hear perfectly, even over screaming loud guitar and bass :D

You know, I just remembered hearing the
new Bose personal monitoring system.
It sounds fabulous but it's also pricey.

But looking at the whole Boss system itself for the band context, it not that expensive.

WOW!! Those Barbetta look cool as hell! And they have loads of power!! I'd like to listen to them in action, but judging by the quality of the build, I'd say the sound is as good!!
