Hi John--
I couldn't come-up with a really inexpensive powered-mixer with
phantom powering, but there could be something bulkier than you need
in a DJ product line. You could use the cheaper, Audio Buddy
phantom/pre with M-Audio's Studiophile AV20 powered speakers for ~
$100USD + mics. The AV20 amp/spkrs have pretty good sound quality
and power. Rob D.
