Re: Schertler dyn-m and amp question
The two current models (excluding the rather huge 'Performer') are the Mini and the Artist.
Both would do what you want - though it depends on just how much volume you are really looking for on stage. My own view on that topic is that the Mini should be adequate (it can get surprisingly loud with excellent clarity and audibility), but if you are running at very high stage levels, the Artist has even more 'under the hood' in reserve and also has extra channel capability. Certainly with mandolin, the difference between the driver units in the two models is not really significant. If you get a 'Mini' off the floor and angled right (stand/chair) they are capable of quite impressive audibility. Suggest checking them out in person. They are both very solid, nice amps, are reasonably priced and widely available. There are other options, but most are considerably more expensive.
PS: For example, the SA-220 which is truly superb (I have two of them), but you are looking at a lot more bulk and a lot more $$$$.... for sheer 'carrying power' (dispersion), however - these remain very, very hard to beat.
